You would like to think so, it’s not hygienic to say the least.
You have to be extremely inconsiderate to allow or encourage your children to do it.

But alas there will always be selfish individuals who don’t give a feck about anyone but themselves.

It's an opportunity to kick this horribly commercialised version of a good ol' English celebration back to the US of A - and hopefully they will keep it there instead of exporting their worst excesses of commercial crassness to us.

There, I feel better now

Yes, and whilst at it we can do the same for Christmas as well.

It’s going to be the best Halloween ever. When the kids come knocking, I’ve got some extra special scary masks this year which I have to wear by Law for social distancing reasons!

Still no official advice from the government on how to enjoy and celebrate halloween in a covid secure way, but nothing surprises me with this government. I've heard many will be holding virtual trick or treats and halloween parties or those who do partake in trick or treats will provide grab and go bags, cleaning stations and hand sanitiser within the bags.

Here is an idea for those of you struggling to grapple the idea of halloween in covid times....

How did everyone's Covid secure Halloweens go??

Our street was very quiet, we supplied grab and go bags for the youngsters trick or treating and a few went but not as many as we anticipated.

 

Is it PotG?
