Can I come to your house??

[Deleted User] · 31/10/14 - 17:40

My checklist;

Lights out
Make no sound or movement
Stay at the back of the house the entire evening
Order take out so I don't have to cook
Ignore the doorbell

I think I'm pretty much sorted.
I might add a little wine to the situation for thrills.

That makes two of us.

Only I'm not staying at the back of the house, nor turning the lights off.

I shall just ignore the doorbell.

Well my partner is coming home with the take out and he's got his own key.

Correct.

If, however, I did, I would not allow them to be duped by this tacky, tawdry American import, nor irritate the neighbours.

I have one of those doorbells that plug into the wall socket , It has been removed for the evening so trick treater's can ring it all they want I won't hear it , saying that we really don't get many down my road because it is mainly old folks homes and the odd block of flats

Vulpes · 31/10/14 - 18:30

My very short Halloween checklist:

Live in a flat therefore never having to worry about little cretins begging for sweets ✔

That's pretty much what I'm doing... I hate it. Really annoys me. It's one of the very few things I'm really old fashioned about. Why do people think it's OK to go knocking on people's doors? It must be really quite worrying for elderly people on their own. Urgh. And yes, I realise this makes me grumpy and I will probably get shot down for that!

Hey there!
