What Hallowe'en?

Halloweāen is a bit of a non starter for me this year. The whole family are working on the new house weāve bought (but not yet moved into), decorating our teensā bedrooms in readiness for when new carpets arrive tomorrow. Weāve spent the last few days steaming, scraping and generally manhandling woodchip off the walls. Each morning weāve woken up stiff and tired from our evening stints, so by tonight, all weāll be any good for is watching a scary movie on TV, phoning for a takeaway meal, and staggering to the door to hand over sweets to the trick or treating kiddies. This time last year, I wrote about what Halloweāen means to me in A Halloweāen Dilemma . All of that still holds true. Halloweāen will always be a special day to me, and before I drag myself off to bed (Iām beginning to sound more and more like a zombie as I write), Iāll spare a thought for my loved ones who are no longer with us. Wherever you spend it, and whatever you do, have a wonderful Halloweāen....
