What we have...Oh, I forgot to answer your question. What we have here is an army of noisy drunken teenagers with red plastic horns (on their heads I mean) crowding the trams and running from one student party to the next. The students have been on sit-ins for the last 2 weeks. Protests against the government in all Unis. <br />About 10 years ago the Austrians 'discovered' Hallowe'en. They haven't really figured it out yet. They thinks it's to do with Stephen King I think.Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881054030497725613.post-38915152989182030012009-11-01T09:17:04.971+01:002009-11-01T09:17:04.971+01:00Amy's Hallowe'en trick sounds wonderfully ...Amy's Hallowe'en trick sounds wonderfully wicked but I suppose you'd have to select victims based on their denatl equipment ... could my choppers handle a raw sprout ... doubtful.<br />Maybe missing the Snowdon Marathon was a blessing in disguise. It'd take you half a year to get over it. Well, me it would. I still haven't got over my 2 Half Marathon races of 2009. A pal of mine says 'roads are for tyres'. I think he's right. And so for me it's back to the trails and tracks :)Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881054030497725613.post-59501677705333785582009-11-01T03:31:29.408+01:002009-11-01T03:31:29.408+01:00Should have added, just returned from a computer-l...Should have added, just returned from a computer-less week in Borth y Gest. Had intended to run the Marathon Eryri as you know. Had to sit it out with a strained groin, toothache, a bad cold, etc., and watch it on S4C instead! Oh well, next year...Dominic Rivronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618013365521035400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881054030497725613.post-62515055094560227482009-11-01T02:18:26.171+01:002009-11-01T02:18:26.171+01:00I really like halloween.

(Strip sprouts of outer leaves. Melt big bar of chocolate. Roll raw sprouts in it. Allow to set. Look great - until you bite them. Mean idea (I haven't the heart to try it) but I kind of like it).Dominic Rivronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618013365521035400noreply@blogger.com
