I asked for advice on winning my argument in the autumn with MrsBlue over whether I could put our grill on the deck, but I made little or no headway on that front, so the man stove sat unused all winter. This recent spate of warm weather is going to put this to an end this weekend, as I plan on having my first proper hamburgers in months, which makes me extremely happy.
