Oh God, it's Halloween.

I'm curious...

Have any of you ever had your house egged or anything crazy because you didn't have sweets or money to give to the little oiks that dress up and come to your door on Halloween?

I've been living in my current house for about 6-7 years, and don't recall anyone ever having come to my door on Halloween. But those years I probably had sweet things in the house to throw at them. This year the best I've got is a bag of raisins. Maybe breadsticks.

If they do come to my door this year, what's an appropriate bribe?

Sid

Aren't you concerned about the parents and Daily Mail/The Sun readers then setting fire to your house?

Sainsburys had a sign up last night saying eggs wouldn't be sold to children under 16. Makes a bit more sense now I realise what time of the year it is...

I have a plan this year send them to the old lady next door as she’s pure evil

Close all the blinds and pretend you’re not in, that’s the best way. Oh and if any little git chucks eggs at our place I will chuck a bag of cement at them got plenty out back.

Pft! Only the newbs throw fresh eggs.
All the pro' will have bought their eggs a few weeks before for the extra smell!

I sprayed my boots silver and put them outside the door. The little shits don't go anywhere near you as they think gary glitter's living there...
