We have 5 November and don't need this other nonsense!
Seconded.
One good thing does come out of it though. There are always loads of fun size chocolate bars left in our house as I always overbuy for those pesky trick or treaters. Might also have something to do with me switching all the lights off and pretending we're out!!
haloween here and in north america are totally incomparable.
when i was 9 or 10 and living in Canada my parents said we wouldn't take part in haloween (church of england folks, not keen on the ghoulishness of it all). then our neighbours came round and asked if we had any plans - when my parents said no they were horrified! they explained what a big deal it is out there and my parents softened their stance. it is unreal out there! every single kid gets dressed up in great outfits and the parents really go to town. then all the young kids and parents go out trick or treating together and get given sweets by the sack full. it's a great night and i remember it fondly - everyone was so friendly.
compare that to haloween over here - a spotty 16 year old ringing your doorbell and basically demanding protection money...
I'm having a 1990s party at my flat (the date just ended up being one most of my mates could do). I shall be wearing a long patchwork skirt, Nirvana hoodie, DMs with red laces and grooving to MC Hammer, The Shamen and countless one hit wonders (Charles & Eddie, Crash Test Dummies, Whigfield etc). We'll be drinking Hooch, Two Dogs and Bacardi Breezers. _________________ Known as the catch of the camp.
All the bookies staff have been asked to go into work a week on Saturday in costume.
I have politely declined to get dressed up but have said i will mould my testicles into the shape of a pumpkin, without the candle, and place them on the counter.

I sort of wish we made a much bigger thing of Halloween - at least then the shops might not put Christmas displays out until it was over _________________ "The Guineas are too early - I found two dead polar bears on our gallops this week, annd a penguin nicked my scarf"

I'm not a fan of Halloween for lots of reasons I won't go into you'll be pleased to know. Having said this, I am supposed to be attending a Halloween Party this year. I may also go to HQ for their last meeting of the season in the daytime but I fear it might be a bit tacky. I don't want to see my beloved Rowley Mile decked out in cheap ghastly tack _________________ You're born with nothing, and better off that way,

Seriously? DMs with coloured laces were very cool in 1990s Dorset- I also had white and purple, but red seem to be the only ones left in my parents' loft. _________________ Known as the catch of the camp.
