Re: Trick or Treat.
The 'Annual Festival of Licensed Begging' as I once heard it called is actually quite an event up at Rishton Towers and in a world where children are restrained from having any sort of 'dangerous' fun I now welcome it. My pumpkin candle and skull were on display in the window and a sign directed the kids round to the back gate where we were sat out round the chinmea with plates of homecooked pie waiting to scare the little blighters in the back alley. It's all good fun and every one of them seemed to enjoy a genuine little fright to go with whatever they took from the tray of treats.
Let them have a bit of fun, they've got precious little left that they're allowed to do.
