When Man Makes Fire ...

... ladies know to stand well back (inside, through the blinds was as close as we were allowed).

There is a tribal thing which brings them together to gaze into the flames. Men who have no skill in the kitchen suddenly arm themselves with tongs and take control, flexing muscles and demanding more marinade!

We sat chatting till the midges attacked. It was later than I ever remember being outside in Scotland.

The boys are booked on to The Grill Academy course 'Man, Food and Fire' an introduction - part one. If last nights skill was any indication, they won't be asked back to part two! Their attention to health and safety was not the best.
