Getting ready....

Halloween gets bigger every year in the UK. It might be being driven by the supermarkets who see it as a nice little earner in the run up to Christmas but we have taken to it. All those Ameraican movies about suburban life have turned us on to it. We have a lot of young families with small children in our bit of English suburbia. They come round in famililies, dressed in their costumes, and it's a lot of fun. So today I've been getting organised, carving pumpkins and getting my treats ready. We will be having people over for supper and watching the Halloween episode of Strictly Come Dancing.
