We're waiting to have some autumn bonfires.. It has been so dry here for months that there has been a burning ban in effect since April.

Re: how do you cure the homesick blues?
For me it was going down to World Market and buying lots of anything made by Cadburys, and watching iplayer. Actually I was homesick for anything European so got addicted to Wallander/Borgen/The Bridge etc. I think it was the unrelenting downbeatness I missed. I would also buy french cheese from Wholefoods. Honest, I`m such a glutton, I`ve put half a stone on since being home.
