Trick or treat

[Barmaid]

We all geared up for tomorrow then? I've just been finding the decorations and sorting stuff out.

I just said to Mr BM "What are you dressing up as to take **** trick or treating?"

"Dunno", he says "Perhaps if you take him, there'll be no need for anyone to dress up".

I shall poison his supper..........

I could just stick ASBO at the front door and go to bed with a bottle of Pinot?

Dammit, I bought into this children lark, I suppose I had better get with the flow.........

Yep BM, you have to suck it up, I'm glad mine don't want to do the trick or treat anymore, I hate it. Every year I sent them round to my mum's, she loves it so I let her get on with it.

Tin of Cadbury's Heroes...check.
Witch costume, hat and make-up...check.
Pumpkin carved like Jack Skellington from a Nightmare Before Christmas...check.
Chain of plastic bones to go around my neck...check.
Card in the post to my bezzy mate...check.

Yep, I think I'm ready. :)

Ye Gods, Hallween cards, seriously?

[Barmaid]

lol Mojo.

I've got a skeleton, a "Welcome to the Graveyard" sign, some webby stuff with spiders attached. I DID have a box of Celebrations, but I may have to buy some more tomorrow.......... (Mr BM's hiding places are not really very good).

I love it. Got the crisps and lollies ready and just waiting and looking forward to seeing all the children in their imaginative outfits.

Answering the door with a broad smile and a
you look fab, disappointment is all part of growing up
works well

If I am feeling particularly "childish" I ask for a trick.

Last year when I said "What do I get if I say "trick"?", one smart parent snapped back "YOu get to keep the kids". Priceless.
