Default Favourite Event In October/November In The UK?

So we have 3 major events coming up soon, but which one is your fave and why?

Sorry any Americans with Thanksgiving (forgot about that).

I believe you're being insensitive to the Americans here because I like Thanksgiving the best.

I generally hate Halloween but when I have been in England for 2 months in 2006, I love the way British people celebrate it. So I'm going for it.

Diwali was also left out, its also a lovely festival and its this coming Tuesday.
I've been invited to a friend of a friends house I went last year too, and the food, scented candle lights decorations are 2 great highlights of this Hindu celebration, so if anyone gets a chance to go out on Tuesday try getting out to a Diwali festive party, you won't regret it.

That show is absolutely hilarious. I love it.

Anyway, I don't particularly like any of these things, but I'll go for Thanksgiving, even though it isn't there.
