Halloween

If the ab logo has changed so it certainly must be close! Apparently it's tomorrow.

The AB logo use to change all the while but it's been the bog standard (up till now) for ages. It's nice to see it change again this time of year.

Yes, it's tomorrow. On my whiteboard I had written 'Take birthday card to E...… (91 tomorrow!)' and 'Leave EU?'. Well, 50% accuracy on what I shall do anyway.

I thought leaving the EU was a pipe dream. Seems it actually is.


Are you looking forward to halloween Jourdain?

[jourdain2]

Not really, spath. Can get a bit chilly on the doorstep admiring the neighbouring children's costumes.

I'm not really one for it. I'm goign to hand out sweets but that's it. I don't really pay much attention to who comes, I just think it's nice to give them out. When i was young it was always better going to a door with sweets than not so i might as well try make someones night :) Even if they don't appreciate moams!

What's your favorite sweet or candy Jourdain?

[jourdain2]

Hard to say, I'm not a great sweet eater, but every so often I yearn for Clarnico's Peppermint Creams. Dad used to buy me a box every Christmas, but I think they're not made any more. Coffee Creams in a good box of chocolates come high on the list.

I like a good toffee. I also like any kind of chocolate truffle. Maoams are at the top of the sweet list.

Thanks for that, Douglas. I may be able to find them if I search, hope they still use the same recipe - so many things change for the worse.

Yep, definitely Halloween. Just had a look out my front door to see at least half a dozen witches on their broomsticks, high above Pendle. Didn't wanna stay there looking too long 'cos if they saw me staring at 'em, they'd turn me into a frog. And i hate French cuisine:-)
