A few more pics of it sitting on my desk at work.









Can't even take it home tonight as i am going out for dinner.  :( Although it is for a beer tasting.  :)

Found it on Gumtree last week - advertised as a Bar B Que. It was up in Killarney on the NSW/QLD border. Sent the guy an email asking the colour (in hope more than anything) and when he replied that it was dark blue I rang him straight away. He agreed to ship it down, I did a bank transfer (took a chance), and then he sent it.

He bought it from the original owner (who it seems got it from Myer in Brisbane) who only used it a couple of times. The guy I got it from only used it 3 times. It needs a bit of a clean but looks it good condition to me.  :)

Neat, I didn't know those were made in colors other than black.
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch
