Hi Stbd Beam
Its good to see you awake, someone must have just walked past you with some chips or DCS.
My old Weber and i just dont remember how old because i am getting on a bit myself, lasted for ages, in fact it was good as new when i sold it for what i had paid when i did my last move - no point in taking coals to Newcastle.
I now have to admit to now owning a gay boy gas BBQ, it gets so bloddy cold here that you cant stand outside for half an hour waiting for the coals to fire up, but if i was honest, nothing beats cooking on hot coals.
