I use to be totally against Halloween, I saw it as a unnecessarily waste of time and just another excuse to have to spend my money on costumes and lollies.
But
Since then I have become a little less PC and a little less anal retentive as some people seem to be now a days, people who just like to moan for the sake of it, but dont pick the more important things to get their knickers in a twist about.
No my children will not be going to other peoples houses, but yes they will be dressing up and they will have fun scaring their nana and pop. Anyway I think that Halloween may not be OUR holiday but neither is Guy Fawkes.
Halloween means whatever you want it to mean so who cares. Christmas means famiily time to me, but to someone religious it would mean something totally different.

Being an old man who lives alone with just a cat for company - and one who rides a motorbike to boot - all the local neighbourhood kids have been warned to steer well clear of that loony at No. 8.

If we had any brains we'd celebrate it on 30 April. But we're programmed too well as obedient little consumers to think about things like that.
I hate the faux Halloween as it's a reminder that we have long forgotten the role of seasons in our daily lives, and traded a richer life for a handful of bling. Beads and blankets.
Redefining slow since 2006...
Heres me about 11-12 years ago on Halloween night, we were off to a party and I recall a couple of little darlings coming to the house, saw me a ran screaming to thier mum who was waiting at the gate..
And I hadn't even got dressed up at that stage....

And all I have to say about Halloween is this.................

No body move... I dropped my brain
Exert your talents, and distinguish yourself, and don't think of retiring from the world, until the world will be sorry that you retire. -Samuel Johnson
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My signature is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my signature is useless. Without my signature, I am useless.
