Isn't it ironic,that we never get "trick or treaters" in our little road,as we have no streetlighting,therefore making it too dark & scary!!
it's either one or the other, or neither of the two.

Hee hee!! Where we are, the nearest street lighting is about 3 miles away...... our little trick or treaters start at around 10am & finish just before dark...... so I think we're about done for this year now!!

Still going strong here.

Is it just me or are the kids getting older and lazier? just had 6 14 year olds turn up and only 10 of my callers have been dressed up.

Having fun everyone ... Our tricksters have all been rather good ... and one little pooka was gorgeous... In another time and space I would have asked to take her piccy she was lovely... We were going to have a fire and stuff tonight but I overdone the decorating and don't feel to good so having a rest instead... :(

No trick or treaters here - thankfully! Nearest small village is 5 miles away, but we did get dragged along to the school halloween party. Don't want to be a killjoy but I've never seen so many sweeties/colours/waste - really need to come up with some better games (and treats) for next year. It was fun, and it's lovely to get together with folk, but it went on for too long, and J has only just gone to bed.

Anyway... I reckon that's why I don't like to say Happy Hallowe'en, but I'll gladly give you a Happy Samhain greeting :cooldude:

we had a happy samhain, brightest blessings for the next four seasons to you all.

the kids all dressed up, i was a fairy and james dressed as the usperhero, ManMan. a normal man endowed with all the powers of a man. he was wearing his magical jeans and tshirt of power.

sophie's halloween outfit, fairy skirt, pink vest, fairy hat, wand and bob the builder socks.

Lucy as a Zombie

and finally Ollie as the recycle monster; if you don't recycle this is what's gonna be lurking under your bed.

yes, his outfit got disassembled and as much as possible was recycled.

Belated Samhain Greetings to you all!!

It was a very quiet Halloween for us, no trick or treaters again this year... probably because the doorbell for our flat is too high up.

Awwww mini Flibble is so adorable :mrgreen:
