trappa 517 Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Pumpkins are for puffs. Im doing a turnip. Much much harder to carve than a pumpkin so i can shout to the kids "you dont know your born you soft shites" and "when i was a lad we didnt know what a pumpkin was" then moan about having to work a 26 hour day down't pit when i was a lad and coming home to a slice of bread and dripping for mi tea and sleeping in a shoe box int spare room and having to share it with mi 8 brothers as well 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kay 3,709 Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Seems to have died the death round here a few years ago I would have to stick a no trick or treat sign on the door ... not because of kids being a pest but drunken adults staggering home from the fancy dress partys at the pub Never appealed to me as an adult. carving pumpkins with the kids is great Quote Link to post Share on other sites
