In previous years we’ve held a halloween party at our house for the Grandkids, It ended up more hard work & less of a party with constantly answering the door, last year we had over 100 kids knocking at the door throughout the evening.
This year we’re going to youngest daughters, we’ll leave some sweets on a table outside the front door with a sign “once they’re gone, they’re gone, nobody home”

Round our way the unwritten rule is-
Lit pumpkin/Halloween decorations = OK to knock on.
No pumpkin or decoration = don't disturb.

Same round this way.. We usually get through a couple of pounds of apples, some oranges, and a few quids worth of cheapo sweets ( a good many going southward in the direction of my tummy LOL !! )

This year they are all out of luck though, unless they knock on the door of the van, which will be parked up in the middle of Namur, Belgium !

I normally get through a couple of pounds of incendiary bullets.

I hate Hallowfuckinween. I’ve tried leaving polite ‘disturb and I’ll kick you in the balls’ notices but they either get ignored or ripped off the door so now I don’t bother answering when the little wankers come knocking.

A bucket of nitirc acid would be my choice of deterrent but I’ll probably get told off by Nicholas Nicholas if I start lobbing that around.

I'm glad I'm not the only miserable old git that thinks the habit has gotten out of control, as much as I hate kids,:rocket: electrifying the garden gate is not to be done "or so I'm told" :mad:so just put a padlock on it and ignore the little shits yelling!!

My wife doesn't like "begging" so we have a kids halloween tea just for our kids each year and put the decorations up inside etc.

We get sweets in in case of visits but we're up the end of a shared drive and they never come so I have to help in their consumption. I ate a severed thumb earlier :)
