CTCC 36 - Bee Bee Que!

 Well! This one is kind of self explanatory, having sprung from the twofold effects of buying a new 'Barby' and meeting a Downhomer deadline (the latter being something I still struggle to do on time). Panel 3 is the root of the angst I have with BBQ's. Not so much that the units are built in China, or where ever, but that the 'drawings' that accompany the unit are terrible! I make my living drawing things and I can assure you that most pictorial instructions that come from the orient have never been influenced by a designer! Absolute trash. The remaining panels are commentary on the social aspect of gathering to feed one another charred foods and consuming copious amounts of alcohol. I suppose the final panel must have been my inner self yearning for the simpler days of lazing by a pond, cooking up a bit of 'grub'.
