Barbeques - great British tradition

A great British tradition during the summer months is to attempt to cook food outside, that is between torrents of rain and the occasion bout of food poisoning.


So me being a sucker for tradition opted for a simple barbeque with kebabs, cooked sausage and thinly sliced curried chicken. This was attempted twice during May, and both to a successful conclusion, that is, no food poisoning.


My yard is now fully equipped to cater for this food fest, having benches (home made), BBQ and chimnea, and the obligatory huge umbrella, in case of emergencies.

For second BBQ a gazebo was erected, but not needed as weather stayed fine for both gatherings.

Further construction is planned for late summer, something akin to a wooden framed pagoda with facilities including removable tarpaulin, for shelter. Lights may adorn the frame, but a sound system will have to come first.



Who knows we may have more good weather later in the year, but I will not be holding my breath.
