Advantages: VERSATILE AND CAN OVEN COOK Disadvantages: nothing that a glove couldn't fix...... Charcoal is dirty
...I have had a Weber-Stephens BBQ Grill for almost 15 years now and despite hubbies urge to go buy a fancier gasBBQ ( Boys and their Toys comes to mind), I still insist on my basic Weber. Although a gasBBQ might be cleaner and slightly easier to use, it pales in my eyes to the versatility of the underestimated basic Weber which is paramount I feel. It is more than a BBQ. Weber itself has now gone upmarket with large gasBBQ's but the more simpler Weber KettleBBq with its dome lid is unbeatable on price. The sizes are aprox 47cm and 57cm cooking area. All come with the air vented lid with air vents underneath. All are made of rust proof outers so even without a plastic allweather cover these rarely, if ever rust, when left outside unlike other types. Although large they are easily portable having three legs which attach underneath...

Advantages: No mess, no more lighter fluid, easy to use Disadvantages: a bit dearer than normal charcoal but well worth it.
...I tried a gasbbq for a couple of years on the advice of a few people I know saying that they didn't taste any different than a proper bbq, and I suppose they don't really taste that different and they are certainly much easier and cleaner to set up and use. However about a year ago we decided to knock the kitchen and dining room together and this resulted in a huge pile of bricks. I had always fancied a brick bbq and decided to set about building one with the bricks that I had, this obviously then resulted in the gasbbq getting tipped and we were back to the mess of charcoal and fire lighters again - untill I discovered Homebase instant lighting charcoal.
Getting Dirty
I suppose the main problem with a traditional bbq is the fact that when you come to set it up ready to light, you have to start stacking charcoal up...

...Where do I absolutely love going any day of the week? Homebase. I always shop till I drop; I am a home improvement addict.
Homebase is sometimes a little pricier than other well-known Home DIY stores, But they seem to have everything there you need, a one stop shop shall I say.
I have wasted more money on petrol, going from shop to shop looking for a bargain in the past that I have now resigned my self to Homebase.
The shop doesn’t remind you of a DIY store, the layout has a more personal touch. It is always fresh,clean and airy in there. It is not just DIY things it sells the finishing touches.
If you are a shopaholic in Homebase it is worth getting one of their cards, then every pound you spend you will get rewarded. Just go to the till to pay your bill they will swipe your card through a machine. That is the way...

I’m such a perfume fiend, I love to try anything new that’s doing the rounds, so this was no different. I’d first seen this advertised on the TV, and to be honest I didn’t really given it a second glance, because I remembered how much I hated J Lo Glow,... more
Just when I thought life couldn’t possibly get any better a friend gave me some DVDs and there it was – a show about tattoos and the hot guys who’s got them! The show called Miami Ink is a reality show about the people who work at the tattoo parlour with more
