☠ Halloweek 2022 on the O2 Community ☠

[Breanna]

I have no feet to dance, I have no eyes to see, I have no life to live or die, but yet I do all three. What am I?

Hello everyone! 

Have you solved my riddle yet?

Nice one @jonsie!

Count me in for Saturday 29th October for either:

Guess the scary themed film (Based on an image from the film)

OR

A riddle quiz with Halloween being the theme.

I'm open to either, so if people have a preference please let me know. 😈

My vote is for another of your "Riddle Quiz". The last one was brilliant.

Look forward to that @madasaf1sh. It just sounds brilliant.

Congratulations @madasaf1sh may you have the magic of a lifetime together

I took a break from packing last night to carve the cutest pumpkin ever.

Do kids trick-or-treat here? I bought some candy just in case but it's not nearly enough!

[gmarkj]

We get some round our way @Breanna but that might not be the same for you...

[Cleoriff]

We rarely get any @Breanna nowadays. We are in a cul-de-sac and the kids tend to prefer the main roads as they are well lit.

[Breanna]

The street lamp in front of our place has been out for months (although they've just replaced two other poles nearby completely) so that might be something I didn't consider @Cleoriff 

Sounds like I'll just prepare a bit of candy and some rolls of coins as backup just in case haha @gmarkj 

[Comben]

Congratulations madasaf1sh, I hope you have an amazing wedding day and lovely lifetime together. I would also love to see a photo of the cake if you get round to uploading one after you've seen it. 🎂

Thanks Cleoriff, Breana and  Mi-Amigo - Glad to know you enjoyed my first riddle quiz back in summer, based on your feedback I will start organising a Halloween/ Spooky riddle quiz for 29th October. (Thanks for holding back on your riddle Bre and if possible please could you add my riddle quiz into the activities calendar for Midday on 29/10/22 - Thank you 😊- I'll also PM you)

jonsie, Cleoriff, gmarkJ - Well done for solving the riddle, I have to agree a flame dances and can live/ die but like gmarkj said, I'm not sure I understand the seeing/ eyes part of that riddle?! 😬 Maybe Breana can shed some light on this?

Finally, great job on the pumpkin carving Breana, it looks great and in answer to your Trick or Treat question, in my opinion it isn't too much of a thing in the UK. That said it's getting more popular compared to when I was a kid but still nothing compare to the US. As gmarkj and Cleoriff mentioned it depends where you live too - if your on a main road with lots of light and children living nearby you may have more knock than if you live down a quiet road that's dimly lit and has more adults living there.
