Fucking barbecues...

The weather is gorgeous where we are, it’s been beautiful all week, perfect for line drying washing... except it’s not. Every last bastard on our road has decided to have a barbecue, pretty much Midday straight through to the evening there’s a bbq going somewhere. It’s driving me mad having to tumble dry our washing in this weather! I thought we were in luck earlier and put out my sheets... I’ve just had to go out to retrieve them as there’s at least two bbqs on the go now and my sheets now honk

Does anyone else think bbqs are antisocial or is it just me?

Oh dear. That must have been awful for you

It was warm so much preferable to have the doors and windows open. Understandably that's clearly a difficult concept for you.

Barbecues are the work of the devil and those having them should be cast asunder!

They smell disgusting, cause food poisoning and add to global warming.

Worst of all they make my washing that I hung out to dry stink because of inconsiderate neighbours. I've just ironed a bunch of stuff, but the smell of smoke still on them is making me heave, which means they will have to be rinsed out.
