I guess that's the difference between a family BBQ (as above thanks binkylilyput) and a blokes mates BBQ - buy beer, buy meat,go to light BBQ and no charcoal so drink beer then amble to corner shop for charcoal where more beer is bought but forgets charcoal to mates amusement when gets back followed by more beer drinking,trips to get charcoal and yet more beer before eating a semi cooked burger 12 hours later, throwing up due to alcohol and sunstroke then blaming it on the dodgy bag of peanuts billy bought with him ...


Perfection .... who needs side salad as if carlsburg did BBQ's they would probably be the best BBQ's in the world ...

    • Boil - it’s the customer’s fault, not the delivery person’s. 
    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.
