We had a great turnout in our village last night. Mrs Moore got into the 
spirit of the thing and I did a couple of turns in a white sheet. At 9pm 
I scoffed the last of the goodies (a chomp bar) but my glutony cost me 
dear £6 when a group of teenagers unexpectedly showed up at 9.30.

Did you have a pumpkin out? We discovered that when the candle was 
burning, the ghouls came a knocking but when it went out, nobody came.

Spooky.
