Opinions on Halloween/Bonfire Night?

[Cal.]

Made a thread on Christmas, might as well make one about the other two. :laugh:

What are your opinions on Halloween and Bonfire Night? Personally, I think both are just silly ways of supermarkets to make money, I hate both, used to love Halloween when I was child but now I can't cope with it, and I've always hated Bonfire Night.

They're wastes of time, and money.

[Josy]

I love bonfire night, Halloweens alright for the kids too I suppose.

[Marsh.]

I hate Halloween. Can't deal with all the door knockers, especially the 18 year old alcoholics after a bit of cash by putting a hoody on.

I don't mind Bonfire Night though, I quite like it.

[Locke.]

Bonfire night is the worst night of the year. All I hear is my dog barking all night and on the few occasions he stops next doors dog starts :idc:

Halloween is alright but I don't answer the door to all the snotty nosed little bastards, my mum does if she's home though

[Niamh.]

I like Halloween, added bonus is we live right down the end of a really steep end of the line hill so no one ever calls :smug:

Our bonfire night is in June, I enjoyed it when I was younger but doesn't effect me too much these days, Gav does get more calls that night though

[Marsh.]

Our bonfire night is in June

What kind of madness is this?

Just listening to some Westlife classics at the moment Michael, what are you up to?

[Verbal]

It is my favourite time of the year. I wish they treated Halloween in the UK the same as they do in the US. It's a bit of a non event here.

Funnily enough, when a 6 year old girl comes trick or treating I'm not looking for her breasts. :umm2:

I'm glad we don't. They've already spread the commercialism of Christmas, I can do without the over indulgence of Halloween too.

So what does the Irish bonfire night celebrate? Their love of fire? :hehe:

Hate Halloween and how people try to make a big event of it, bloody annoying kids and dumb fancy dress. Bonfire night is no less pointless really, always look forward to that October/November time of year being over

[Marsh.]

Why is Halloween a big deal there?

Probably because of all the "candy". :hehe:

[Verbal]

Why is Halloween a big deal there?

I don't know why, but it is

[Bollo]

Bonfire night is pants ...just standing around looking at fireworks getting cold..

Halloween on the otherhand I love....get dressed up in scary outfits ...loads of Halloween parties and the town near to us does a 'fright night' where interactive zombies walk through the square and attack you..

[Jords]

I love a night out dressed up in Halloween gear :amazed:

Fire Works Night... not been to a display for years but I wouldnt turn down going with a big bonfire and fooooood.

[Kizzy]

Love them! fave time of the year.
