    We have a brick BBQ in our garden.

    We've never used it, it's been there since we moved in 15 years ago.

    I'd be a bit miffed to be judged as a noisy/bothersome neighbour on that basis!

    Not sure why it would? Anybody could have a 'portable' BBQ they use every day.

    We have a BBQ which my DH built into a steel frame as it's not brick maybe we are not chavs? I know my children are not feral and our friends and neighbours who are invited seem to be able to have fun without making too much noise or smells.

    Possibly the most absurd thread I've read on here to date.

    I've worked for people from all walks of life, Millionaire footballer to a single mom, and trust me every 'class' of people have good and bad, the small minded, bitter replies on this thread show me, and everyone else, the type of person you are.

    and you'll notice I've not tagged anyone, because if you're reading this thinking is that aimed at me?, then yes it probably is!

    Depends... If it is large, ugly, looming over your fence... Can't judge without some sort of photo...
