Samhain

And to you Gripper. We've given out over 80 bags of assorted garbage ce soir.

I was out with the wee yin for the first part of the proceedings and noticed that there were many more closed curtains than usual. The other Moms pointed out that it wasn't that long ago when a lot of them were taking their own weans round the houses. However it's now obviously an annoyance when other people's are doing it.

Fortunately there seems to be jungle drums re what houses to go to. Tho' to be fair all of the decorations on our windows and the flashing pumpkins and ghosts are probably a bit of a clue. It seems to have polarised that way.
 
happy halloween fsssst

They were so polite around my way.. We had a big bowl of sweets all prepared, we had 3 gangs of trick-or-treaters who just took one or two each, rather than a big handful, so we've still got loads left.... :mellow:

Two years on.. this year there was 6 gangs, they all turned their noses up at the sweets, and asked for money and drugs.

Oh how times have changed :mellow:

You have to sort of do an age check - one of those height things they have at fun factories would be ideal. Below a certain height it is mini mars bars and assorted candy junk above and its silver coins and vodka jellies. :dabs:

Very quiet this year - SGG is partying this weekend and No 1 son presumably had a celebratory game of Dungeons and Dragons up at Uni.

Edit: Had completely forgotten about this thread - doesn't time fly (like a banana)?
 
We had to sing for our supper.

Traditionally, it was...

"Halloween's coming on and the goose is getting fat.
Will you please put a penny in the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny, a hapenny will do."
If you haven't got a hapenny, God bless you and the old man too."

We had to sing that beore you got said satsuma. Now it's just "Trick or Treat".

Bloody weans don't know they're born.
