BBQs seem to be featuring heavily in our summer tour. My friend Karen bought me a great little fire bucket BBQ for my birthday, it only needs a few coals, gets to cooking heat pretty quick and lasts more than long enough to cook everything we’ve wanted to so far.  We’ve been really lucky with the weather too, even when it appears to be chucking it down in the rest of the country we’ve been sat out in sunshine, so it’s had quite a few outings.

A good thing I’ve found to do it just to get everything you intend to put on, mushroom, peppers, onions etc and just stick em in a big bowl and stir them round with marinade, then you can just keep putting them on as you want more. We did these ones with a bit of sour cream, paprika, crushed garlic, cayenne pepper, olive oil, salt and pepper. Yum. We then eat them in pittas with loads of guacomale, soured cream with salald and nachos. And drank cider. Lots of cider.

The place we were staying on these picture was pretty cool too. It’s a place just outside of Cirencester called Abbey home farm. It has an organic farm shop and you can camp in their fields, by some woods. We were the only people there apart from a wwoofer, it was great to have some space to ourselves and chill with the cider and sun. They have no facilities at the site apart from a cold water tap and compost toilet in the woods, which might put some people off, but to me just made it seem like luxury wild camping.
