I'm pretty sure there aren't any.In my defense, I was looking for a black tree to make it more for Halloween but could not find one. I do not put up Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving I promise you

Well not natural no, should have said artificial black ones. Found some of those but a bit pricy and/or take way too long to ship so I said heck with it. Could have just used spray paint I suppose lol.

The American seems happy to get his decorations up 2 weeks early
It's a Crodo thread. FFSCan I just say - f*** Halloween!
American bollocks latched onto in the 90s (?) over here
Don’t get me started on the two month build up to Xmas
Why am I not surprised that Crodo embraces this rubbish?

Having lived in this.... Interesting country for a while now I have to admit Halloween is superb here, everything is very eerie, some of the haunted house attractions are f***ing insane due to the sheer amount of acreage available for them and it's just fun. Halloween IN.

In this household we endeavour to ignore Halloween as muc as we can.........
The last few years I’ve noticed some houses in Newhaven with Halloween decorations up a few weeks before the 31st, I saw one house with them up at the end of September.
I’m sure in the past anyone celebrating Halloween just put their decorations up on the actual day, seems a bit over the top.
Same types that put their Christmas decorations up in November I suppose.

Accidentally kicked the skeletons out of the loft over the weekend.
Wait, Hallowe’en?

It's just another big commercial opportunity dreamed up (for UK purposes) by the big retailers, one of which I used to work for. You know the what we called the seasonal aisle. It's all about these sales opportunities, basically selling worthless junk. Every few weeks it will change to the next thing.
Watch out in the next few years, international women's day, an idea imported from the continent to sell flowers and chocs etc. Most people in the UK had never heard of it until recently. I guess they are stocking up on world Cup memorabilia right now and I don't even live in the UK now.

Retail makes me laugh with its blatant hypocrisy.
'We're all about sustainability, but please buy all our plastic Halloween shite that will end up in landfill quicker than you can say "Do you need a bag?".'
'It's January and we're all about healthy eating as customers start their new year's resolutions. But only until February, when we're going to cram 50,000 Easter eggs into the seasonal aisle.'
As for Halloween? Nah, it can do one. There's nothing 'fun' about a load of 'scary', gory or gruesome stuff outside your house.

It's good to see this year the banks and travel agents getting involved in the spirit of Halloween by displaying mortgage and exchange rates in their windows

Excellent shoehorning of a political gag in a Halloween thread. Well played.
