Then say goodbye to your windows
or get ready to clear up eggs that have been pelted at your house.

Re: Handy Halloween tip !

Or do what I do - just don't answer the door!

Luckily it's on a Friday this year, so I'll be out quaffing pints and shooting pool whilst the chavs walk round in the cold freezing themselves to death......... Almost brings a tear to my eye

Hopefully they'll all die from dog aids first.

I usually dont answer the door but they see the light on through the curtains of the living room and knock on the window saying they can hear the tv and see the light, cheeky little things

Re: Handy Halloween tip !

You're all such spoilsports!

On my way home from work tonight I bought some goodies in anticipation of a few visitors to the door later on.

Last year I did the same - except we had no visitors!

So this year - we'll turn off the doorbell and the lights, pretend to be out and eat all the goodies!

People don't even try, they just buy a 99p plastic mask and expect that to count as a costume, if it was like america where people put effort into their costumes then fair play.
