Bounty from darkest Peru. And Buffy the Vampire Slayer

My husband has just got back from a business trip to South America which included a few days in Lima, Peru. Thanks to the wonder of Ravelry I found out about the Michell Alpaca shop in Miraflores and he dutifully went there with a list of possible requirements. They didn't know what Aran or 4-ply were but he got me lots of baby Alpaca DK:

 
really so beautifully soft! and a cone of unidentified very fine laceweight which he was told is 8km long...


at a fraction of the retail cost here. Plus a tartan-y woven alpaca scarf which is gorgeously soft.

His return has meant we can continue with another project, watching Buffy-from-the-beginning. We are now midway through Season 4 which means last night we got Hush, one of the best episodes ever made, and also at the zenith of Spike's Imperial phase.
