    Hi, me and a few mates are sitting in this evening and we've decided to get into the Halloween spirit, so we're going to give out some treats to kids or the likes.

    So far we have the following:
    Chicken wings
    Chocolate covered onions

    What else can we give out ?

    You can give out about them calling and annoying you!

    I got some packets of mini bars/sweets and some Tayto-type packets but didn't get any soft drinks because some sensitive parents might allow the odd sweet or crisps but would consider sugary drinks a step too far particularly with recent publicity.

    Carrots,pieces of Broccoli,lettuce leaves and any other healthy vegetable that every child knows will poison them.

    I thought the prevailing social breeze is men giving sweets to kids are to viewed as suspect :confused:

    I would say about 6-7 o'clock would be peak time. I bought about €15 worth of stuff about 2 years ago (all the cheap stuff in the shop was gone) and not one person called to the door :mad:

    I have only had 2 callers in groups tonight so far. I am hoping for no more as I want the rest to myself :D

    A doorbell, that sounds like a Rottweiler, who wasn't fed for days :D

    I have had around 10, it's nice, seeing the kids in their costumes is the one part of Halloween that I like, I hate the fireworks, bonfires and scumbags.

    Jesus, I could actually do that. There's a feral cat that had a litter a few weeks ago living somewhere in my back yard...

    A lot of yummy mummy's coming to the door with the kids.

    The nicer the mom, the more sweets the kid gets.

    :o

    Chocolate covered laxatives. Last one to soil themselves wins Halloween.

    I'm done all cleaned out and their still knocking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 346 ✭✭Paddy Fields


    Not one so far. Emmerdale at 7 so they have 24 minutes to avail of the Rancheros or they can fook off and I'll have them myself. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,244 ✭✭✭sdanseo


    An auld fella on our road used to give us about 20p each in coppers wrapped in tinfoil. Back then that'd get you 20 penny sweets, wasn't actually too bad, if a bit weird.
