Happy Halloween

Halloween has been downgraded in this house from THE favourite festival of the year to rather cursory involvement from Sam.  

Nevertheless he did make a pumpkin and spent an hour giving out sweets - encouraged by me since Martin bought a couple of boxes at the weekend and I don't need the temptation of them in the house.  I shouldn't have worried though as I notice that the few left when we blew out the pumpkin at 7pm have now disappeared.
