Trickin' 'n' Treatin'

Shutpa

Tonight daughter in tears because I wouldn't let go T & T with SEVEN of her friends. What would you do if 8 kids turned up at your door?

PS Day saved when Mrs B offered to take the kids to the cinema to see a film about a ratty chef. Me? Of to the club soon for a couple of jugs. Is there a match on Sky tonight?

After last year's events (dog crap through letterbox, eggs on car and abuse shouted through windows from local teens that my Mrs teaches whilst at our old house), I've been busy adding bolts to both our high front gate and large parcel-sized letter box on fence. Not had a Halloween in our new house yet, but have been dreading it TBH

So far, tho; no probs. Have had 3 groups of under-9's with chaperons. All rather sweet, dressed as ghosts/wizards etc.. Took their sweets from Mrs 'Chippie and said 'thank you'. All very polite.

I have no probs when it's kids that of age, out around 6ish with someone looking after them. It's when you get the 15-17yr olds, out in regular clothes plus a pair of crappy devil horns, demanding 'sweets or somefink, yeah' , together with that look that says 'whatever you give me, I'm still going to egg your house' that I get ****ed off :evil:

I know I was harping on a few months ago about 'the youth of today being unfairly maligned...' but hell; older kids trick - or - treating really annoys me!


[/rant] :LOL:

Round our way is great.Those families with young children (like ours) wishing to take part put pumpkins etc in the window or decorate their house and we knock on their door. kids get sweets and everyone happy.
Anyone in the dark or not decorated doesn't get their door knocked no problem.When you have put the kids to bed and you don't want the dog to bark a note is put on the door and no one knocks - simple ;)
 
I've seen a few on our CCTV, but I'm far too grumpy to actually answer the door :LOL:
 
you need to get a mic and a speaker set up so you can tell them to get lost from the comfort of your armchair. :LOL:
 
im servicing my chainsaw at the moment. every time i go to the front door holding it when interupted they all run off screaming. cant think why :confused:
 
All the young kids came around with their dads discretely behind at a distance dressed up as all kinds of creepy things and it was fab ... Gave them loads of sweets (they'll be sick as parrots tonight though).

Then a couple of groups of teenage girls came around and hadn't bothered to dress up or anything so, whilst my wife was talking to them at the front door, I crept out the back, went around the side of the house in my dracula mask and popped out of the bushes behind them ... Scared the s**t out of them so much they gave me sweets :LOL:

One of their parents nearly wet himself!

We never grow up ;)

aparently in the UK we have it wrong.

if you dont mind T & T calling you do put a pumpkin on display

bloke on the radio said he got his own back for prvious years, he gave anyone who T & T a home made chocolate cake

the cake was made with laxative chocolate
 
Its a great sales opportunity! Today we sold out of bulk bags of sweets, and pumpkins. :D Though this year the crop of British pumpkins was bad due to poor weather, many were unripened in store, still green, and the final delivery of large pumpkins was monday, and stores were shorted on small pumpkins. Though we massively underestimated demand on them in terms of our ordering too. Halloween grows every year in this country.
