The monkeys are on holiday with their Mum for Halloween and they’ve asked that we celebrate it before they go.
I’ve always done Halloween with school or Brownies and I trick or treated as a child but Halloween has got bigger in the last ten years and my mother in law does not like to miss an opportunity to decorate. I have informed the monkeys that as they will miss Halloween with us we cannot celebrate it. So the imaginative wee ratbags have created Fizzyween which obviously occurs on the 21st of October this year.
I am informed by the monkeys that Fizzyween is meant to be skunny (scary and funny – and yes that is the correct spelling) so nothing too terrifying. There needs to be a gold tree, silver cobwebs and pink spiders. Food is important as are fuzzy ears and dancing.
So now I need to plan Fizzyween. Bring on the skunny!
