Trick or Treat

October 31st, 2009

In my day, we went around the houses collecting apples and nuts on Halloween.

Nowadays it’s all this fucking “Trick or Treat”.  Another ghastly American import.

In my day, we made do with an old sheet thrown over our heads.

Now it’s all Star Wars costumes.

*sigh*

I was thinking of laying on something special for any kids who dare to call tonight.

I think I’ll invite Great Uncle Josh around.

He’s an amiable bloke, and he likes children.

He can answer the door to them, and show them what Halloween is really all about.

He’s been dead this last fifty years.
