Inflatable Gravestones

[poliphilo]

 I'm not seeing much in the way of Halloween decor in Eastbourne this year. We passed a house that had filled its front garden with junk and it stood out because it had no competition.

I asked Mike if was the same in Greenwich and he said, Well, no, his street had a lot of skeletons and such. They're going home tomorrow morning because he has some inflatable gravestones on order and he needs time to blow them up and get them installed before the evening's candy fest.

We don't give out sweets. We give out plastic doodads. I sort of enjoy the mad rush.

they don't do trick and treat here

since the James Wetterly kidnapping
it happened at least 100 miles away
and years ago

My girlfriend knew the kid as a friend
she had personal connections with him,
she had real reasons to not trust.

but here they won't want ot get to know their neighbors, I think that is less safe
esp.in the country.

but then houses are farm feilds away,
you'd have to do it by car?
instead they have a party at the school

wonder if they do it in town?
they have suggest some kids should visit
nursing homes the old folks love visiting halloweeners.

We live in town, in an area of (mainly) 1930s housing. Lots of young families- and the kids mostly come accompanied by their parents. It's about as safe as it could be.
