I wouldn't hurt the children, they're just playing a game.

Re: The end is nigh
Just saw a little boy of about 7 years with a pumpkin he could hardly carry it was so huge, and while i don't agree with us taking on Amercian customs, i can see how it would be fun to make a lantern out of a pumpkin. The vege shop is doing a good business and i expect there might be pumpkin on the menu for some weeks to come.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Re: The end is nigh
Neville i think your pity is misplaced. I think you put yourself in that little boy's shoes. He looked very happy.
Lots of pagans up your way Marty? Those pagan ceremonies sound interesting....

Well Marty, Heather ( and Matt

Re: The end is nigh
.. that is true...
Actually as I later recalled there used to be a bottle of beer put out for Santa in my childhood as well.. which used to be gone in the morning. Proof positive of his visit I guess.!
.. but with all the presents to be opened it did not get more than a moment's thought....
