but my husband was doing a barbecue at lunch time, in bare feet. Quite a silly thing to do and even more silly when an ember landed on the patio to stamp on it to put it out!

Phew , sounds horrible, poor old Mr Kittylester , we have a saying in our house though "boys will be boys" grin

I hope he put it straight into cold water! Did he finish the bbq?

Oh!!!!!!! Horrible!

How come you've got warm enough weather for that? confused envy

JO4 It's been really hot here today, not sunny all the time but really pleasant. (Cheshire)

Nonu Sun 02-Sept-12 18:12:34

We could have Barbie"d here as it has been very mild . In fact sunshine

That's awful and I hope he's OK but it did make me laugh. It's the sort of daft thing I do all the time smile

I'm thinking of lighting the fire. (Berkshire)

Nonu Sun 02-Sept-12 18:25:22

We put the special ointment on it Greatnan so he could finish the barbecue grin

The weather here (N Leics) was warm enough but not sunny - flipping freezing again tonight though!

I keep having a quiet giggle about it.

Weather here is warm so while I was doing the ironing I opened the kitchen window, when I had finished I put the clothes away and then sat with feet up reading a book for a while grin. Upon my return into the kitchen I was shock to find several catterpillers crawing all over my work top . Agghhhhh

We had a BBQ here on Saturday with DH and 3 DS all telling each other how to do it. The 'girls' all let them get on with it!
