Built a sleeper seat along my local riverside walk 9 years ago with tree trunks for legs. They've finally rotted through. Decided to replace the legs with 5mm thick steel pipe. Won't need doing again.
That is a ****ing mess tbf. Started power washing the patio slabs yesterday. It's going to be summer in a couple of weeks before winter starts again in July so gotta be ready.
I was looking at the gardens yesterday. It all looks a bit daunting tbh, I've a load of work to do and need to start getting on with it.
Got a big gas one we used at work last year, I need to get that home. So it can sit in the garden unused.
I've got one of those too. Not that I'd **** around with wood, barbecue bricketts and some lighter fuel will do. I think I used it twice last year. Fairly sure the gas one will gather dust.
Yeah you can’t beat a proper charcoal bbq. We do this every night when we go camping up on Dartmoor. Cook up some food, then use the bbq to put some wood on for a fire. Sit round the fire drinking rum, munching shrooms, bunnin spliffs and chatting ****. Happy days
Just get some apple or cherry wood stick it at the bottom and light and usual it makes a big difference.
I agree the chips only work if you're using the lid I wait until the food is almost done then soaked chips into the hot coals and lid on for a couple of minutes. Not as good as using wood at the bottom though.
