A bit of devil worship does no harm.

If you're nice to the kids, they'll be nice back, simples. Doesn't hurt to be a nice guy.

That is a rather iffy comment, still you're a Catholic aren't you ? I think you shouldn't listen to closely too what your priest says.

In related news fireworks go on sale tomorrow so we can have two months of loud bangs.

Any other annual events we can start on?

When my son was little I remember hiding in the house and just not opening the door, and being glad once the doorbell stopped ringing.

We live near to a square where lots of American families live, and they go to great extremes to decorate their houses and give out sweets. It's a real tradition around there, we went for a couple of years, and it was fun.

But last year, word seemed to have got around, and there were literally hundreds of kids in this square - they can't all have been local. We won't be going back.

Instead, we have been growing pumpkins in the garden, and will make a Halloween-themed dinner, but will keep it low-key.
