They are elected on behalf of the people who voted for them and if they change their stance on an issue they should be forced to step down or be imprisoned for the remainder of their period.

Barbecues.

 

I don't like them. If I'm invited to one I go very reluctantly. I like to eat or drink outside only when I'm away on holiday. I find it irritating that the second the sun peeks out of the clouds in summer the mrs is dropping hints for me to light ours up or go to a neighbours. I can't see what people find good about them at all.

Doing Heroin

 

Why would you do that?

 

Maybe i'm being naive but has anyone you know done heroin and not fucked up the rest of their lives?

 

Everyone I've known that has doen heroin is now either dead or has ruined their life.

I am going to interpret this post as Mark my words having a go at people not getting the thread.

I think they are just a way of socialising and giving people a good excuse to get shitfaced. No problem with that, surely?

Its what we do when the sun comes out. You don't have to invite anyone.

 

That is an odd one, Dec

 

I thought I'd be pulled up on this alright! Just my contribution to the thread though. Ya it's an odd one alright. It is what it is though so will have to work on it.

It absolutely meets the qualifications of the Op, though.

Sounds like turning up at the pub/wherever sober and you just wonder what you're doing there. Or is that just me?

Barbecues are beer and meat, whats not to like?

 

Don't invite twats to them and they're ace.

 

I love not bothering to be involved in the macho wars of who does the barbecue when its me and my mates.

 

Yeah, you stand over there getting smoke in your face for a few hours. I'll sit down and drink beer, ta.

 

The only time I get involved is if we've got steak. As 99.98% of people over cook steak.

Ya there is a bit of that too it. I just prefer pubs for drinking and restaurants if i'm eating out.

 

Anyway from this day on I shall resolve to change my ways!

I think you picked me up wrong...maybe the analogy wasn't quite right.

I just meant it sounds like those out of body experiences when you're in situations, everyone else seems to be having a great time and you're wondering what on earth you're doing there.

 

Barbecue is just a style of cooking for me, a very relaxed and enjoyable form

No I understand totally what you meant, and you're right that's how I feel. Sorry for not getting my point across. I'm much more comfortable in a pub.

I bloody love barbecues. I don't care if I am doing the cooking or not. I love the taste of barbecued food. Not just banging some frozen burgers on mind. You have to put a bit of effort in. Well marinaded meat, homemade burgers, corn on the cob. That sort of thing.

 

Top food. Normally you eat it outside too, but i grill year round, just for the taste and smell.

Yep!

 

I love barbecued food so much I've toyed with starting a thread about it on a few occasions.

Sometimes there's nothing I like better than a burger and a beer on a Saturday night. Whatever the weather.

We have a gas one , which I was sceptical about to begin with but what you may lose slightly in taste is more than compensated by its reliability. Love it

I love doing the BBQ but only because I love cooking, I'm also happy enough just sitting back and having a laugh and a beer.

 

Completely agree about the steak.
