Isn’t it, though!
I went to the Chelsea Flower Show and there were at least five stands flogging seriously high end outdoor kitchens. One of them had ovens ranging from £4000 to £11,000. It’s now a real thing for the .0005% apparently, lol.
I said to DH, firstly, what bogglingly rich loony wants an outdoor kitchen in England where you’ll barely use it in our challenging climate? And then I told him all about Clammie and her oopsie with Candice Braithwaite, which lost them all those lovely, expensive freebies, and how Slymon had to build their outdoor kitchen himself. We then laid bets on how many summers his plywood palace would last.
