It sounds silly, but an open fire is a luxury I grey up without.

In NZ the fire risk is simply too high for open fires or charcoal bbq’s.

So living in the UK, I love making the most of my new found flaming freedom.

A night out camping, beef and lamb on a spit over an open fire, chocolate bananas in tin foil and finished up with marshmallows on the flame.

The kids were in bed for the fire fun, but one day they’ll get to enjoy the joy of fire.
