@leixx write sentences with when use the simple past and past continuous. We / have / a barbeque/ it / start/ to rain

You cannot say “we have a barbecue” but you can say “we were having a barbecue” or “we are having a barbecue”
To use “it” you must say “until it started to rain” or “it started raining” “it began raining”
