3 things that go together: bonfires, The Bonfire Band, and Lapsang Suchong.
Autumn means bonfires! In addition to knitting, here are a couple of things you can enjoy while awaiting combustion:
1. The Bonfire Band is a delightful London-based band whose music makes me smile every time. This is one of my favourite songs of theirs, and one that I think captures their lighthearted ways. It’s called “Good Times” (in Londontown), and it’s a reworking of Bob Dylan’s “Hard Times in New York Town”. Give it a listen & download it on iTunes if you like it.

2. Lapsang Suchong, if you haven’t heard of it before, is a strange tea which has a distinctly “smoky” aroma, a result of its being dried over pinewood fires. Admittedly it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but if you like the smell of bonfires, I strongly recommend you give it a try.
For best results, indulge in all three (& knitting) on the same day! :)
P.S. Thank you to Al & Mr. Jingles T.B. for making many of my slideshow photos possible!
