Halloween in the UK

Ow, about the sword...

Wow, Alicia, thank you!

Maybe if I signed up now, I'll hit the top of the list 'round the time of graduation.

Good luck ...sign up for the BBC one as well as the waiting list is long...I would have loved to work as a prop designer for CBEEBIES..


I'm thinking for our own Halloween Party is to have some 3D horror films on the projector screen...after we went to see "Sharkboy and Lava girl 3D" I asked the manager if there were glasses I could have and he said yes to ring him by the end of the month

Last year we projected a film in our garden but I'm not sure if we could do a 3D out there ...

I think my costume is sorted..I just got to sort Phil's

ok that's just too cute !!

Halloween in SF was pure magic. The gay community really love to decorate their houses up for the kids.

Then they have an adult party later on held on Castro Street, which is quite entertaining as well.

I'm not big on dressing up myself but the kids are really into it and I hope to keep that holiday memorable for them. I do hope to be able to afford to take them home someday at Halloween to experience one in the US.

Alicia, the 99p shop in Camden High Street has a small selection of some good halloween decorations.

I've heard they can be hard to find here, so I thought of you when I saw them. 

oh cheers I know which shop you're talking about too so I mosey over this weekend before folks snap it up..cheers!!

Alicia,

I have a bag of sweeties that are halloween.....they have black bats and white ghost and orange punkins..kinda like sweethearts but not sour if you know what i mean..would you like them......I also have a wilton cake decoration kit that has orange and black and purple sprinkles in it...?

ooh that would be lovely Meshell...I got a costume sorted for my daughter's party...and phil's sorting out Shrek 3-D for the kiddies..

pm your address and they are all yours darlin........I will hunt out what else I can find...........

My husband is going to be Jack-the-Ripper and I'm going to be a prostitute.  I finished his costume a long time ago, but need to get cracking on mine.

Don't you think that's a little bit sick? It's not so long ago that the Yorkshire Ripper was murdering womenin my city and I was  too scared to go into the garden when it got dark. Would you consider dressing up as him and one of his victims?

I think Jack the Ripper was so long ago that it's fair game, now. It's history more than anything else. I worked in a haunted house in the US for many years (Louisiana State Fair, baby!) and one year we all portrayed famous murderers. My BF was Jack the Ripper and I was Lizzie Borden! We made such a lovely couple!

I see nothing wrong with Jack the Ripper,it happened 117 years ago.

Jack the Ripper lived such a long time ago that no, I don't think it's sick.

I have to admit that I agree with HME on this, my husband knew nothing about the yorkshire ripper until we had been on the london dungeons. Although it is a few years ago now, its still fresh in alot of brits minds.

gives you the info

The Yorkshire Ripper is still, understandably, fresh in a lot of folks minds, but Jack The Ripper is not.

How did your husband learn about the Yorkshire Ripper by visiting the London Dungeons?

soo dressing up as the Yorkshire ripper is bad but going to an amusement-like attraction about murders and criminal behaviour is....
