See the last couple of days theres been articles in the Herald about the Unseasonal sunny weather in Auckland(including a front page item covering almost 1/2 the page), It went on saying about using the BBQ to make the most of it as it will be December before the BBQ comes out again :(

Without a lie, a couple of weeks ago we had a BBQ on the deck here for Saturday lunch. Great weather indeed.

Would love some icing though... any coming in the forecast models?
There is no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.

Just place the BBQ inside.
I do that quite often when ChCh's annoying Ne wind ruins a lovely summery day here in the garden city.
When the Cold easterlies blow, instead of putting my winter woolies on, I just bring the BBQ inside. It's much warmer :)

Try that in Auckland with the SW this summer, or now, to beat the cold..
