rothschild Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 We had 13 beautifully dressed up and well mannered kids call on us. Not all at once though. lol. I was happy to see they all had adult escorts as well. They were rewarded with the usual halloween goodies. I hope everybody elses experience of the "trick or treaters" has been as nice as ours was.

Randy Marsh Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 We only had 2 groups of trick or treaters, which means there was a whole lot of sweets left over for yours truly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkgirl Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 It was fantastic round here! we had 15 separate lots of treaters come, most with parents waiting, nothing bad happening- most knocked at our front door. So because of the dogs I went round from the side apart from the door been left open and the dogs got out, made them run a bit:hihi: all they would have got would be a good wash from the daft doggies- put the dogs safely inside and gave them some goodies Even the shop down our way hands sweets out. All goodies were gone by 6.45:o so the pumpkin was blown out:hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipskap Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Can't be doin with 'em. I dug out a pair of platform shoes, sprayed them with silver paint, added some 'glitter' and left them on the step. Seemed to keep the kids away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 So nobody had fireworks through the door, tyres slashed, windscreens smashed or anything? What on earth was the other thread about then? The Co op at Heeley Green got egged, but that's what you get for selling eggs to minors on Halloween:hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RosyRat Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 We had 3 lots of lovely kids. One lad had a rubber werewolf's head on, with gaping jaws. I said he could only have a chocolate orange biscuit if he could eat it through his mask. It took the combined efforts of him and his sister, but he managed it. I had the horrors thinking he was going to choke on my doorstep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredsredhat Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 we only had a pair of young lads call. they were the most polite kids so i told them to dig deep in the treat bag and grab a handfull. My mum really went to town decorating her house with life size witches and loads of pumpkins, and when she opened the door ,in the hallway was a 6ft inflatable ghost with a blue backlight shining, it looked brilliant.... and she had 1 caller!!!

the snowman Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I shut the curtains and had none knock on the door. I'm sure they must have passed by as I live on Granville road and it's quite popular for them. I think the parents won t let them do it without an adult and as such they leave the unwelcoming houses alone. I do this because I don't want to encourage bad things happening. Having read this thread I might make the effort to get some sweets in next year and join in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
