Thought I'd share this with you all, especially for those still in the UK so you'd know what to expect when you get here!
BBQ - by definition its the only type of cooking a real man will do.
When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
1. The woman goes to the shops
2. The woman makes the salad, vegetables and dessert
3. The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man, who is lounging beside the grill, ready with beer in hand.
4. The man places the meat on the grill
5. The woman goes inside to organise plates and cutlery
6. The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer whilst he deals with the situation
7. The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman
8. The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table
9. After eating the woman clears the table and does the dishes
10. Everyone praises the man and thanks him for his cooking
11. The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off". And, upon seeing her annoyed reation, concludes that theres just no pleasing some women!
It'd be funny if it were'nt so true!

Don't get the weather for many BBQs here but that does sound like the correct procedures
Here's a little site I have ready for when we get to OZ

That is superb
It's almost as if someone was watching me when number 3 in the list was written
Lighting a fire is one of the most fundamental primitive things that man can do, so why is it then that I can never get the b*stard to light when there is a crowd of dinner guests waiting expectantly for a culinary masterpiece to appear ?. I always have to soak the damn thing with gallons of lighter fluid and then half an hour later, serve up several pieces of charcoal which are masquerading as steaks. I even managed to set my hair on fire one time which I have never been able to forget thanks to Mrs. Nobby's insistence on entertaining all subsequent dinner guests with this very entertaining story : D

Excellent list ! Must get that printed off and laminated so that the missus doesn't miss any of the steps
