There was a time we had loads of callers - we are on a main road - but I watched "Strictley" in peace.

Halloween must be very big in Holland.

I have a friend who lives in Apeldoorn and she was telling me yesterday that there would be 80 children trick or treating in their street last night

She sent me a photo of a very scary masked little person who'd just knocked on her door... would have frightened the life out of me!

[Cat tails]

Apeldoorn! I have friends over there too!

 

Well it really depends on where you live, some places don't do anything. This is the first village I have lived in that actually organises it.

[Groovychook]

Apeldoorn! I have friends over there too!

Really?! I don't suppose your friend is called Iris?!

[Cat tails]

Nope sorry, no Iris.

[Groovychook]

It was a long shot!

[Cat tails]

You never know!

Q - what do you do for Halloween?

A - draw the curtains, lock the door and sit very quietly

 

Us too! That's exactly what we did And funnily enough OH is eating all the sweets as we speak.

There were about 20/25 groups of children out in our village last night, some accompanied by parents and some not. We live in a small close off the main road so not quite in the village but still get masses of children. I had put up a couple of the police notices which politely ask children not to visit but they got torn down

 

I still find the amount of money that it all costs for just one night a bit sickening; at least with Christmas you can make it last for a good couple of weeks at least! At least the close was tidy this year; last year there was a huge amount of wrappers and sweet papers left lying around the following morning.
