If you've been visiting here for a while you'll know how much we love Halloween in this household - in spite of all the grumps moaning on that it is not a British tradition... who cares?! It's an excuse for a party and we love those!
The costumes this year were spooktastic!
The pumpkins were scooped and lit.....
Buns were decorated and games were played... this years favourite was [you need to be thinking Squeak Piggy Squeak here] "Wooo Ghoulie Whoooo" .
Did you ever see a more angelic little devil?
Clearly spooks don't really do conventional table manners....
But we don't care if they're having fun!
But letting a cat eat the buns... well really!
Don't you think this vampire looks like a jolly sort of chap? I think so too, so much so that I didn't mind at all when he asked me to walk him home up the very dark lane to his house.....
The goodbyes were the best; some of the children had never met before but who needs names when you have costumes...."Goodbye vampire" 'Bye skeleton " See ya Devil".....
And then we phoned America - our especially British tradition....
"Trick or treat, trick or treat, give us something good to eat!"
Maybe one day we'll spend it with them again and then we can have an American Halloween but for now we do our best to be British about it! t.xx

Looks like lots of fun though!
