...you don't succeed, set fire to it!
Phah - I thought I'd go to the foot of Penhill to get the 'bigger picture' of the bonfires, but I got there and found myself in a pea-souper!!! Bah. Worse still, I didn't take the picture I saw in the fog! Was too worried about how to turn the car around and go back.
So, then I went to look at the bonfire I was trying to see from Penhill, but I think they'd finished, or not started... there wasn't much there anyway.
Instead, I got some Durham readies out of the hole-in-the-wall and came home to do a DIY job :-P
