Good day everybody!

I was in B&Q this weekend, and I asked the nice folk there if they happened to have a barbequeue.......

They informed me that it was a seasonal item, and that I was a wally.... Thats right.... A wally...


I am having a Winter Barbequeueueue at my place in a few weeks, and have a rather urgent need for a fire pit!!!!!

Does anyone know where I can get a fire pit at this Wintery time of year?

Need barbequeeeeeee!

PS - Wow! I can make writing green!

How do I edit this?
We've got two cheapy Asda barbeques in the shed you'd be welcome to borrow. Don't know where you might get charcoal at this time of year mind - maybe burn some old pallets?

Also suggest writing to B & Q to moan about your treatment - you never know they may give you a bbq just to shut you up.

Can you not get your hands on an old metal drum, and slice it in half, they make great BBQ's.

Nothing on the internet?

Thank you everyone for your kind offers and help :)

I must admit though, I was considering the oil drum option - but would you believe, I can get hold of a barbeque if I reeeally need to. What I was after however was a fire pit, something for the guests to gather around in case of cold!

I also had my eye on the garden incinerators from Argos for about £25 a piece.... They would have been good to have dotted around for warmth!!!

Maybe I am missing something here, but Argos has loads of fire pits and chimineas....

EDIT

Your other option is Trentham Gardens Retail Village, one of the shops there was selling off BBQ's when I was there Saturday so may be selling off firepits and chimineas too.

Here's a great idea for a barbecue...it's always an arse turning all the sausages individually and there are always a couple of escapees. This solves both problems!

I had an excellent comeback to that.

Then realised that it was actually just as horrific. Ergo I remain silent.

(I appreciate that by saying I will remain silent, I therefore didn't, but.... bah)
