Ghoulies!

When I was a child, there was no expensive fancy dress, or 'trick or treat' nonsense at Hallowe'en - you got dressed up in whatever you could find at the back of the wardrobe, and visited the neighbours to do a 'turn'.

As my bestie likes to remind me (every year without fail) I would only visit neighbours who owned a piano (so that I could subject them to aural violence). The bestie also claims that I played the same tune every year...I deny that emphatically. My repertoire was extensive....at least three songs, with (as the great Eric Morecambe once said) all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order....

Happy Hallowe'en to you all.
