Well you hadn't set the bar very high with that barbecue :ner:Quote:

Set fire to his hands, stumbled backwards and ended up sat in a ditch, where the water also caught fire.
His wife was very annoyed with us because instead of rushing to help we rushed to get our cameras. I was more annoyed that it was too dark to get a decent picture. Still we have our memories :)
He was fine btw, but not a quick learner - we attempted to do another barbecue a couple of years later when camping in Spain, but the cheapo barbie I'd bought came with flame retardant charcoal. His wife had to physically restrain him from going to his Harley for reinforcements :doh:
