Happy Halloween!

It's that time of the year again and we took advantage of Tesco's "Buy one get one free offer";

It's pumpkin time!

Which involved scraping out a lot of goo;

And some artistic work too;

There was a whole lot of Goo! - enough for soup and pumpkin seeds too.

But very much worth it, in the end;

Mines on the right and it definitely looks a bit sour and down in the mouth!

Happy Halloween!

Jack O' Lantern.

We finally got round to cutting our Jack O' Lantern for Halloween.

It's quite symbolic for me because last year I was OK until about mid November, in fact we were having a nice time.

Then it all went wrong. The year since has been really, really tough.

Lots of pain.

So, cutting the pumpkin was a big deal. This is me taking the top out;

This is the expert at work;

With a complicated pattern;

And a big knife, gulp;

Ouch!

Jack's looking pretty good this year;

We had an All American day - in the afternoon we watched American Football played out at Wembley stadium (Buffalo Bills vs Jacksonville Jaguars) but I have absolutely no idea what happened.

We supported the Jaguars and I spent half the time thinking they'd lost and it turned out that they'd won.

Doh!

Then we watched Back to The Future III - last Wednesday was the 21st October 2015 - 'Back to the Future Day'. This was the impossibly future day that the Professor and Marty McFly set the clock on the time travelling De Lorean to.

All week the films have been showing and everyone's been talking about how accurate the second film was about how life would be like today.

Then I roasted the Pumpkin seeds and we spent the rest of the evening talking and crackin' pumpkin seeds.




 

 

How cool is that?

Jack 'o Lantern.

Another bad week - Tuesday we went to the cinema and we didn't just not get in....we couldn't even get into the car park. it was half term and Diwali.

Tonight? We went out but we got there a week too early.

And I've been ill all day.

So we slunk home and did this!

We cut our pumpkin up to make a Jack 'O Lantern.

Not bad for our first effort - Happy Halloween!
