The sun stayed out just long enough in Malhamdale to have the first barbecue of the year at the weekend.  After cleaning up the BBQ from it’s winter storage we got the local charcoal going, I now use Craven Charcoal from Rathmell which is a fantastic local, sustainable resource and really does burn longer and hotter than the imported garage forecourt charcoal.  I will be supplying Craven charcoal on the local Paganum delivery round.
