Nobody brought this topic up... I'm confused!! 
Oh well, what was your disguise? (if that is the correct word)..
I suspect some people to be dresses like a Pringle can...

Quite frankly, you lot on that side of the water have a lot to answer for. Trick or Treat my arse. When you're trying to get an 11 month old baby bathed and off to sleep, the last thing you need is a constant stream of little scroats knocking on your door and demanding chocolate with menace.
Thank you, I feel better for having got that off my chest.

So I take it you don't enjoy Halloween much then? I bet you don't like Christmas either then, what with all the scrounging carol-singing scroats (to use one of your words)?
I don't care what anyone says I love Halloween. There's a guy on local radio around our neck of the spooky woods who is noted for his interest in all things ghostly. He's been planning a big Halloween showdown for months putting people in obscure haunted houses and castles in our area for a live show where he would go between them and play the material live on air. I've been looking forward to it for ages and I fucking fell asleep after five bastard minutes... and the show was on for 4 hours!!!!!!!
To top things off earlier on my bird decided she wouldn't answer the door to the children who wanted some toffees and stuff so it was a real damp squid and chips.
Oh well.
I can understand it if you want to bath baby but for one night in the year, surely your baby could get a bath slightly later than usual and sit up watching horror films with a tinny and some smokes?
Also... I did try to get some Halloween banter going yesterday but Snake put the mockers on it the little cat fighter. ;)
for my costume I gathered a large white trash bag and wrote Trojan on the bottom of it, then slid it over my entire body...the folks at work said that it was quite appropriate the I showed up as a dick!!!
IT'S STILL NOT HALF AS BAD AS THAT INCREASINGLY PATHETIC AND IRRELEVANT EXCUSE WE HAVE 'ERE IN SHITEY OLE BLIGHTY FOR A SO-CALLED CELEBRATION: FUCKING GUY FUCKING FAWKES NIGHT; CELEBRATION MY FUCKING PILE-ENCRUSTED ARSE!!! MORE LIKE A LONG SLOW LINGERING FORM OF JAPANESE WATER TORTURE - LASTING ANYTHING UP TO FOUR FUCKING MONTHS - SEPT TO LATE DECEMBER (NOT INCLUDING FUCKING NEW YEARS FUCKING DAY, WHEN THERE'S EVEN MORE MISERY ON TOP OF IT ALL....). I MEAN, WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT OF THIS PIECE OF MEANINGLESS SHIT ANYMORE?

FUCK ME!! PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY - OR MORE ESPECIALLY PEOPLE WHO PURPORT TO RUN THIS COUNTRY - ARE SO COMPLACENT AND FUCKING PIGHEAD IGNORANT ABOUT LIFE IT DEPRESSES THE FUCK OUT OF ME.... I MEAN, THIS COUNTRY IS A FUCKING MESS: OUR PUBLIC TRANPORT IS A FUCKING EXTORTIONATE SICK JOKE - AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE - NO OTHER COUNTRY IS AS CLUELESS WHEN IT COMES TO KEEPING THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE INTACT....AND WHAT DO PEOPLE IN BRITAIN DO? THEY PUT UP WITH IT!!! THAT'S WHAT!!! FUCK!! AND THEN BONFIRE NIGHT - WHICH LASTS ABOUT A WHOLE SEASON HERE IN THIS SHITHOLE, AND SHOPS ARE SELLING FIREWORKS THREE MONTHS EARLY SO VIRTUALLY EVERY LITTLE SHITTY-ARSED, RAT-FACED, TURD-BRAINED, INBRED, WALKING-ABORTION OF A TEENAGE SCUMBAG CAN EASILY GET HOLD OF THEM AND BASICALLY SET THEM OFF FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS KNOWING WHAT A FUCKING LARK IT IS TO GET UP PEOPLE'S BACKS WITH THEIR INCESSANT AND ALL SO COOL AND ALL SO REBELLIOUS TWATMONGERY...BLAH BLAH BLAH......FUCK!! I WISH WE COULD GET OUR HANDS ON SOME OF THESE LITTLE LOW-LIFE NO-BRAIN WASTERS, THEN IF THEY LOVE BONFIRES SO FUCKING MUCH WE COULD TIE THE LITTLE BASTARDS UP TOGETHER AND ATTACH THEIR FUCKING ROCKETS AND BANGERS TO THEIR HEADS AND SHOVE A FEW UP THEIR LITTLE SCRAWNY ARSES, THEN LIGHT THE WHOLE LOT UP AND LET THE MINGING LITTLE FUCKERS BECOME GUESTS OF HONOUR AT THEIR OWN BARBECUE.......THAT'LL PROBABLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND PUT AN END TO IT....JESUS, NOT ONE DAY GOES BY WHEN I FEEL LIKE THAT! NO FUCKER ELSE SEEMS TO BAT AN EYELID. SO YEAH, GUY FUCKING FAWKES NIGHT IN THIS SHITTY COUNTRY IS JUST AN EXCUSE FOR THE LITTLE TWATS AMONGST THE GENERAL POPULACE TO LOOK FORWARD TO MONTHS OF GETTING UP PEOPLE'S BACKS - AS IF THEY NEEDED ANYMORE ENCOURAGEMENT FOR THEIR EVIL DEVIOUS INTENTIONS, SO THE SHOPS HERE WILLINGLY PANDER TO THE LITTLE BASTARDS (AND ADULTS TOO - THEY'RE PROBABLY JUST AS BAD) AND SUPPLY THEM WITH PLENTY OF AMMUNITION FOR THEIR EXCESSIVE HEDONISTIC OBSESSIONS.
YESTERDAY WAS HALLOWEEN BUT YOU WOULDN'T HAVE NOTICED IT FROM WHAT I HEARD ALL THE TIME: NOT ONE SINGLE TRICK OR TREAT ANYWHERE...OH NO....WHY BOTHER WITH THAT WHEN YOU CAN HAVE ENDLESS FIREWORKS GOING OFF ALL FUCKING NIGHT AND INTO THE DAWN?? IT SEEMS THIS SHIT HASWELL AND TRULY GOT OUT OF HAND HERE....JEEEZUS.....WHAT WE REALLY NEED IS FOR HALLOWEEN TO COME REALLY INTO ITS OWN.......MAYBE FOR A FEW HEROES WITH MURDEROUS INSTINCTS AT HEART TO PROWL THE NEIGHBOURHOODS LOOKING FOR SHITTY LITTLE FUCKING KIDS/TEENS HELLBENT ON FIREWORK HOOLIGANISM AND ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR JUST SO THEY CAN BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THEM, RIP THEIR HEADS OFF AND THEN SET THEM ALL ON FIRE

:confused: ????????
Totally agree with you Martin, Guy Fawkes night is a load of Bollocks, first your bird decides you've got to go to some shitty field, where it's as muddy as fuck to see some shitey bonfire and a few tasteless and downright tacky fireworks, not only that - it's usually -25degrees, there are at least 500 kids either shouting or crying, the fucking hot dogs are always freezing and almost always you end up with food poisoning the next day, then you puke for the rest of the week, and then when you get back to work, you realise that the fucking place has burnt to the ground, caused by a firework that went astray!! or does this kind of thing only happen to moi....FUCK HALLOWEEN AND FUCK GUY FAWKES NIGHT
Ok now, for my own culture, what the hell is GUY FAWKES night?
We might have been conquered by the Brits, but it's obvious there is various differences since 250 years :D

AREN'T YOU CANADIANS THE LUCKY ONES? TO BE BLISSFULLY UNAWARE OF THIS UTTER UTTER SHIT "CELEBRATION".
I WISH I WAS YOU.....SERIOUSLY......I HATE IT HERE..... THIS FUCKING COUNTRY MAKES ME WANNA DIE...... 
I SUGGEST YOU TRY AND STAY ANYWHERE HERE IN BRITAIN BETWEEN SEPTEMBER AND THE NEW YEAR AND THEN YOU MAY UNDERSTAND JUST WHAT MADE ME SO HOMICIDALLY ANGRY IN THAT LAST POST UP THERE.....

Someone called Guy Fawkes tried to burn down the Houses of Parliament a couple of hundred years ago (which wouldn't have been too bad) but the twat got caught, and they burned him on top of a bonfire for everyone too see. 
LIKE I SAID, THEY CELEBRATE THE LIFE OF A FAILURE! THAT'S SO BRITISH ISN'T IT??!! IF HE DID BLOW THE FUCKIN' PLACE UP, THEN YES, THERE'D BE REASON FOR CELEBRATION. BUT HE DIDN'T DID HE? JEEEZUS. PATHETIC EH?
........YES!!!! I'VE MADE IT!!!
I'VE PASSED THRU TO THE OTHER SIDE!!!!!! YEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

I take it you scrolled right past my rather explosive rant a bit earlier on, then??
