Glad to have helped - I only bought charcoal, as i'd bought a pile of stuff when Argos had their sale.

Got a Weber chimney starter for £11.99 but was extremely lucky as i got the last one in the area.

Hey there guys - I know the stuff is cheap and not built to last but there is a 50% sale on at Wilkos on all BBQ stuff.

I don't know if their charcoal or briquettes are any good - but the briquettes were £1.24 for a 3kg bag - so I thought it was worth a punt for a half dozen bags (it was all I ...

Hope this all went well Curlie.

Just got to go for it markd!

As a Scotsman down here, I am a bit more used to getting the good weather, but on Friday as it hammered down hailstones, I said to myself that I was doing the first burn on Saturday no matter what and then my first cook on Sunday.

And as I fired it all up on Saturday ...

So my WSM arrived last week, got it out of the box and all set up:
