Minding 6 year old grandaughter today. She's super excited at prospect of dressing up and going out trick or treating this evening.
Will only knock on to houses with pumpkin outside, will see friends and have a giddy old time. Seems a grand evening.

No Halloween when I was a kid but we had mischief night on the 4th November and then Bonfire Night with the street's own fire and the chumping, guarding and raiding excitement that went with it.

None of this organised fireworks malarkey - buy your own bangers, cannons and air bombs and let 'em off yourselves.
