Come To Our Party!

Come to our party, come along please.
We won’t even eat you, just give you a squeeze.

We don’t want to get you, or scare you or worse.
We only want you to help us rehearse

The lines we should use when asking for treats,
And how we should speak through our masks and our sheets.

You can bob for an apple, or run from a wolf, help a witch cast her spell, or stroke a giant moth.

But whatever you do, don’t turn your back, on the ghosties and ghoulies who follow your track, and don’t leave the path, or go down the dark stairs, as these are the things that catch fools unaware. Just stay in the light and hurry home soon, quick before wolf realises it’s a full moon!




I hope you enjoyed our party and didn't get too scared. If you would like a scary halloween book to read click here (a children's book I hasten to add!-which partly inspired my party)
We are all off to visit Vanessa here for her party at A Fanciful Twist. Please come along with us-we promise you will come to no harm!

Light and Dark

A first visit to Shorne Country Park-only about twenty five minutes away and really lovely. It was busy, but once you leave the cafe and playground areas it is easy to be alone. It is on the site of an old clay pit, and has woods, open ground, and I think there is a lake though we did not find that today. We had a little picnic and then explored the woods. Light and dark. Hot weather and autumnal treasures such as acorns and beech nuts. The squirrel above was enjoying a snack.

Apparitions in the trees were whispering about a party for Halloween being hosted by Vanessa. Click on the picture below for details..................
