OT I know, but her indoors has decided as the weather is going to be
good on Monday (rolls eyes) we are going to have a BBQ & invite a few
(?) of the family.
So it looks like a bit of shopping is involved.
I will probably borrow the old transit that my cousin owns to drive
the 20 or so miles to the cheapest booze shop, hope it won’t burn to
much oil, you know where it has been by the blue smoke.
Meat & veg etc will involve another 20 or so miles.
There should be about 40 people coming, no one will have to drive over
60 miles & they will be going in the opposite direction to most of the
traffic.
I invited the neighbors as they will not then complain about the four
range rover, two land rovers, a couple of jeeps & a couple of Mercs.
Uncle George has said it would be a good time to get the Mustang out
for the summer.
Parking should not be a problem as the buses can pass if they go
slowly.
Of course if the weather is bad we can use the patio heaters.
Linda & the girls have said that they will be able to make it as they
are not catching the plane to Egypt until Wednesday. ...

Oh, I had one of those. At 90mph you could watch the fuel guage going
down.

I'm going to buy three patio heaters and lots of meat.

BBQ. RULES

We are about to enter the summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important

activity, as it's the only type of cooking a 'real' man will do, probably
