I was thinking about my family when, suddenly, there was an energetic knock at the door. I opened the door wondering who was there knocking D loudly. To my surprise I saw a group of kids, dressed up as ghosts, witches, queens and cowboys. Two of them were carrying a E with cut out eyes, a nose and a mouth.

My son Tom, told me, “Give them some sweets, Mummy, or they will play a trick on us.” “Like what?” I asked. “They can throw water on the windows, put a pin into the front door keyhole or break an egg on the windscreen of your car”, he explained.
