    I think as a garden party the big plant pot with a liner bag for water loons great. Look at all those lovely little flowers....

    What beers we drinking fellas?

    I tend to go Estrella as an everyday beer but will get some good ones in for a party Brooklyn Lager, Goose Island IPA and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

    A good bottle of tequilla is also essential in the sun. :biggrin:

    you want to mix up sangria's for RHC... some ****ty easy cocktail like that to get everyone smashed in the back garden

    then get your beers in... if anyone wants lemons or limes in the beer... kick them out.

    Sgroppino is great for sunny day BBQ.

    Half a glass of Prosecco
    Shot of Vodka
    Spoon of lemon sorbet
    Couple of mint leaves.

    Or

    Shortcross gin and tonic

    Or

    Tempted sweet cider (lisburn brewery) on ice.

    1 part Gin (Grand Ten Wireworks or another low juniper gin)
    1 part grapefruit juice
    2 parts IPA (Boulder Mojo works nicely)
    1 tsp simple syrup (adjust to taste if you prefer a sweeter drink)
    Sprig of mint
    Wedge of grapefruit

    mix that up for Luv.

    just copied and pasted.. no idea WTF those beers or gins are but probably yank

    This is the Indian lamb burgers recipe. Use red onion not white. I just use ready made breadcrumbs because I couldn't be assed with doing themmyself. Fresh chillies best rather than powder.
    Mix it all together make into burgers...stick in fridge for half hour to firm up done!

    Then just make up a cucumber and mint/ corriander raita to dollop on the top.

    That would involve some actual decent effort mate, so I'm out.

    Peroni for me, or failing that I'll have a go at most half decent Pilsner

    Not an 'ale' drinker as such, so I'm fairly easy to please.

    Because the Euros is on I'm going to try and time a decent weekend match/s on a sunny day. Bring out my old tv. Too far for connecting top house Aerial...I assume I could just stick one of those indoor Aerials on it and it would work?

    Went to a BBQ years ago in my parents village, at the village pub, to raise funds for the local football team. The BBQ was run by the team not the pub. Unfortunately they put the village idiot in charge of the BBQ. After loads of chicken and sausages had been eaten said village idiot went into the pub to get more chicken. He brought it out and put it on the BBQ. Someone said to him you need to defrost it first. He replied " I never defrosted anything I've cooked today and its been okay". Needless to say there were a fair few people chucking up the next day.

    The village idiot went on to join the Navy and is a weapons systems operator now, God help us if he ever sees combat.

    Read it again


    L490mm x W365mm x D220mm

    Care Instructions:

    Galvanised steel is not dishwasher safe.
    If water is left in this item for periods any longer than 6 hours staining and/or corrosion may start to occur.
    Dry thoroughly after every use with a clean cloth.
    Clean with a soft cloth dampened in water and a mild non-abrasive washing-up detergent or soap. Rinse and dry thoroughly after cleaning.
    Store in a dry environment.

    If you leave water in a galvanised bucket it'll rust it says my I'd say..... Ehhhhh Hhhmmmmmmm no ted.

    Just imagine the size it is first

    Is about 8.5 inches tall enough really?

    I would say take out the old one and stick a big plastic bag in it then fill it.

    I'm not big on cocktails and tend to just go for straight Tequilla or rum and coke or ginger beer. Rum and Ginger Beer is a good summer drink though.

    Double rum over ice in a large tumble, slice of lime top up with the beer, use this stuff though as it's by far the best...
