global trade is useful or wasteful

i thought my good value, extra long, proper grade, burger flipper was on a slow train from china

it may be on a boat from america as a slight diversion

Is it something like below? If so, maybe it's coming on a row boat.

last coordinates were a usa port, it left, it has not arrived yet, paddling with it Hawaii 5 0 style would be interesting

if i had noticed where it was, a different one would be in the bbq tool box

my paddle has landed, extra large paint scraper and about right for flipping an industrial amount of burgers

good value but an awesome journey across both big oceans

a fun coincidence was the postie also had a small padded mystery package for me
a while back i took a punt on a bargain rough garnet, 19.27 ct for £13 inclusive was hard to resist

it arrived, fully certificated, as described and rather nice(i have plans for an eye insert in some fancy bling)
as far as can see it just need a cabouchon and a good mount as a reflector

a good photo can sell the goods and make the buyer happy

I'm glad it has finally turned up DPack. Let the burger flipping commence. How many do you think you'll be flipping?

onions, toms, garlic for onions and the beans, did i mention the beans?

the paddle is a minor detail

Good grief DPack, that is going to be a looooooong day. I hope they are providing free liquid refreshments after all that?

Mind that RSI

they are they apart from the flesh and cheffing

coffee and malt, gin etc will be required and i have my own panama hat and leather welding hood combo

i am trying to make it as easy as poss, if i get the planning and prep right it will be
an hour of flipping on the 2 bbqs is a small price to pay for a few hours of stoking oak and ash and turning 20 lumps

the marinades, spice mixes etc will be as pre-made as poss, sauces are easy or in a bottle

i am not doing salad, bread, cakes or greeting bao

last biggish one i did was xmas on fire for about 50 or so, quite relaxed even if it did get swerved to boxing day after xmas eve

Well it sounds like you're going to enjoy it, so I hope you do. I also hope you get better weather than what we have on offer today.
