Simple in design...there was some work in it though.
It was our first COG.
Scroll the the photos.

Mummsy may share a photo shortly

we had a very ugly area that we didn't know what to do with for a long time, as our interest in camp oven cooking has increased we decided to turn it into our camp cooking area.
After a lot of hard work the area is now finished & we are very pleased with it.

Cheers Sue & Russ

Top job Mummsy & Russ
I especially like the rack that  the Coffee pot is sitting on  :) :) ......simple and it works, be good for grilling chops ect on too
SBB
PS dog looks a bit wobbly on feet...has it been in the mollasses mix again????

What is the floor made of?  

Top job.

KD

Nah SBB she's been chasin the chooks [smiley=chef.gif]

KD if you mean the gravel in Victoria it is sold as Tuscan toppings...the fire pit base is just dirt.
The grate was saved from an old BBQ so we can grill on it as well...

fantastic snap

Just to add a story to the picture, the oven on the tripod, is Sparky (Kev,s) vegetabkle soup, the Bedourie is OzJeeper's Beef Roulades, out of picture would have been PD's Chichen Coqavin.

Hi Skip
I'm not a big fan of cactus but we have put in some red fountain grass...very easy care, looks good, gives movement and the seed heads are sterile so won't self seed everywhere else in the garden

Gee that looks good too, an excellent choice of plant. I guess I love Cactus because it reminds me of how much I love Tequila.

Sue that is an interestinmg folding chair in the picture, I have two that look identical.

He used Austral Bricks:

Daryl the round circle is just landscape blocks from Astral Bricks works a treat, only split one so far but its still in the circle, they are probably just a concrete type base. The red bricks are just second hand solids all differnet sizes, cost about 25 cents each from the brick guy.

All the rest was just fun me and the boys and Rastas.

that looks a treat with roof on
