Keith, would you be able to put some expansion eye bolts or wedge anchors into your patio?

My smoker has been moved into the greenhouse for the winter, works a treat!!

It's worth a try, we were redesigning the garden , okay buying a small shed, so we'd have to work out a semi-permanent location. Eye bolts are a great idea, never heard of wedge anchors and having googled them I think we might give them a try in the spring. Thanks :D

I bought a sort of bivouac for use when camping during the summer. Managed to lash it over my brick smoker so that it provided a large dry area underneath.

It looks like I'll probably need it again as I've taken the plunge and I'm starting to sell BBQ at a local Farmer's Market in about 10 days time. Might need snow shoes, too.

Nice one! Would be good to meet.

I'm hoping that the cold weather will give people an appetite for hot BBQ.
