HALLOWEEN in Australia~!!!!!!??????

by **Shazzam** » Mon Oct 31, 2005 7:54 am

Well tonight is Halloween :evil:

and I can't believe that some families here (for the last decade) encourage their children in the activities. I have always brought my children up to not take lollies from strangers (and here we go) now people are saying it is ok. We don't participate in the festivities.

I know that this is an American tradition; personally I wish it had stayed there!

:roll:

P.S. Its dark and no one has come; maybe it is starting to die off in Australia (thank god). The trick has been that I didn't have to treat!! :lol:

All you have to do is get all your neighbours to pour a bucket of cold water on the little tykes when they come to your door begging for candy! That will put a stop to halloween in a hurry.

It is against the law in Australia to throw clean water over anyone (actually i think it is the same in the UK). You can only throw water over someone if it is dirty water (laundry etc).

I just don't open the door. They can knock their hands off; i just ignore it. Mind you so far so good; no door knockers!!

Maybe they have taken the hint! :lol:

If I have children and when they grow up, I'll teach them to go out and steal candy from unsuspecting children rather than working hard themselves.

It was a very quiet Halloween.

Thank goodness. Not one door knock. Maybe Australia has already realised how stupid this celebration is! :roll:

To me it is so American and so unAustralian. :roll:

Not even a knock? Wow, maybe danyet was in front of your house splashing kids with cold water.
