My micro-fiction tale…

Her husband slipped his arm around her. “Well, no more barbecues this summer. Though I’m positive that new grill was defective.”

Oh dear, that didn’t go too well! I’m just back from my camping trip, and because of the current heatwave barbecues were banned on the campsite!

That must have been disappointing! We, too, have fire bans on when it’s been so dry for weeks. Thanks for your comment.

I remember one year we went camping and all campfires and open flames of any kind were banned… really sucks when you cannot sit by a fire – you’re forced to talk to each other!!

Better safe than sorry? Not fun, though when the whole house is affected!
