BBQ RULES

BBQ RULES
We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
Routine...

(1)
The woman buys the food.
(2)
The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables and makes 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 - drink in hand.
(4)
The woman remains outside the compulsory three meter exclusion zone where the exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman.
Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
More routine...
(6)
The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
(7)
The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another drink while he flips the meat.
Important again:
(8)
THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
More routine...
(9)
The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauce and brings them to the table.
(10)
After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And most important of all:
(11)
Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIMfor his cooking efforts.
(12)
The man asks the woman how she enjoyed her 'night off,' and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.

The GOBI family tent: Fully sewn in ground sheet?

Hi Michelle, the ground sheet is fully sewn in throughout the tent apart from the front porch area under the awning - this is a tub style ground sheet fully sewn into the rain fly

There is also a secondary sheet sewn into the inner sleeping tent effectively giving you a 2 layer water proof floor in the sleeping area

Hope that answers your question but let us know if you require further info

Best Regards,

Hello.
My husband and I really like the gobi 6 person tunnel . We have a few questions: 1 is the ground sheets swen into the tent itself? It says on your website that it is just in sleeping area. We have seen another tent just like this one overseas and it states that it has a fully swen in ground sheet. how well does the rain fly work if it does go all the way down?

I haven't received all the parts for my tent!

Hi Jason, thanks for your email

Please note that some of our tents are so big that we have to pack the tent in 1 box and the poles in another

Sometimes they arrive together and sometimes they arrive separately

If you haven't received all the parts by now, please let us know and we'll chase up the shipment for you

Best Regards,
