Trick or Treaters
Well I have recently moved from out in the sticks to only half a mile from the town centre should I expect hundreds of kids coming round tonight?
Should I go and buy the cheapest sweets available from lidl's or shall i just turn out the lights and brave the dark!?

Our front door bell won't stop from the minute I get in to about 8.30 - 9 when you get the older kids trying it on for *** money.
Fortunately my daughter has a party at a friends house and I can hide in the loft building my railway.

Well what a waste of time!
£5.00 bucket of haribo that I bought will have to be eaten by me!
not even one single knock on the door must of been scared off by the previous owner!
