Hi Jerry
yes we celebrate "All Hallows Eve" in the UK followed by " All Saints Day" on Novenber 1st. Halloween and trick or treat is catching on here in a small way, however the fireworks fortnight is well under way...when I was young bonfire night on November 5th celebrated the Guy Fawkes conspiricy when they tried to blow up the English parliament, for one night we burnt the "Guy" on a bonfire had fireworks, potatoes in the fire, and a great party night, now it goes on for 2 weeks, fireworks started last night,glad I no longer have pets, at least when it was one night we could keep the dogs and cats in on the night , now they suffer for days
ran out of Danish, back to chocolate chip cookies
