.... but two and a half hours to build a f*cking bbq this evening !!!!!!!

That's twice I've been duped this week !!

This evening, I get "oh go on, build the bbq before you go out on your bike". After much swearing, sweating and cut finger, I discovered that bbqs go together much easier with a 48oz ball peen hammer !!

Sunday I was told "it's just a Christening", it turned out to be 2hours in church !! ooooh, I was angry ! That was two hours I could have been out on my bike instead of listening to the woman at the front lie to everyone !!!! And..... apparently those little cushions aren't for sitting on, they're for kneeling on, why make the seats so f*cking hard then ???(I'm not a big fan of religion)
I was so bored, I resorted to counting the tiny squares on the left cuff of my shirt (9974 by the way).

Spleen vented.

    Build a BBQ??

    Don't you just dig a hole and put some wire mesh on top?

    Surely can't be that hard?

    I bet you never read the instructions did you?

    Love n hugs

    You do indeed, but not on my lovely stripey lawn :D
    Ans yessss.......... I did read the instructions, but nowhere did it say I'd needed a dremmel and a 6mm tap !

    Oh good god, you're not one of those that's anal about their stripes are you? :lol:

    Anyways hun, you have a way to go to beat my neighbours and BBQs, take one Wilkinson Special, 4 hours, several lagers, and it's still on the piss, (the BBQ, not the neighbour), but then they have been known to try and BBQ turkey twizzlers and tinned hotdog sausages...

    Love n hugs

    Not that anal about a stripy lawn......... it's stripy by default and the stripes aren't exactly straight :roll:

    Anyway, the bbq performed faultlessly this evening and I was magnificent :D

    I think you go the better alternative.

    I came home after a ride to find the lack of BBQ building had inspired the current Mrs. Izza to buy two of those temporary BBQ's from a petrol station and place them on our (wooden) decking.

    We now have three charred patches on our decking about 1 x 1.5 ft in size.

    You must have missed out when they were handing out the primal caveman gene mate. :(

    Or I got your share then cos I can knock up a BBQ and have it blazing in minutes. 8)

    Fire outside + Raw meat to be cooked = I turn into a red eyed cave man, throw some booze my way and I get all Alpha Male and no one else gets near the BBQ. :lol:

    Lucky I am good at BBQ'ing really or it'd really p1ss on peoples parade huh.
