364 days
« on: Yesterday at 08:24:44 PM »
I've waited 364 days to wear my Halloween t-shirt - it arrived a day late last year.

Most years we don't get any trick-or-treaters but I always buy candy - I just tested a Twix bar out - two thumbs up.

Happy Halloween!

People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

My wife bought a large tin of Quality Street in case any trick-or-treaters came round. None did. She is very happy.

:D

I bought a tub of sweets even though I live in a forest, far from the nearest proper road, and I was fairly certain to be 100 miles away in Kilmarnock watching my team play football when most of the kids were out guising. However, my two older grandkids live literally next door in the same building with my daughter and her hubby, so they turned up on my doorstep on Friday evening, not even in costume, and left me with just a small handful of the contents of the tub. Which I was happy about, because, as predicted, no other kids braved the dark, pot-holed, single track 'road' to our house... and I'm not really allowed sweet stuff, so that handful was more than enough.

Happy Halloween indeed! :)

Twix (I think it's its own plural) is/are one of my favourites also, Diane - always has/have been.
I apologise, in advance.
