I have always loved Halloween. Dressing up, dunking for apples, the magic of sparklers, scoffing sweeties and monkey nuts and carving out pumpkins, all against the backdrop of autumn at its peak. It’s just a great time of year, don’t you think? What are your plans?
In school, some people would have likened me to Wednesday Addams (not meant in a complimentary way… but the Princess Leia comparison bugged me more…!). I guess because I’ve always been very pale and had very long hair, which I wore in plaits to school (not the double bun ‘do by Princess Leia, though it was a suggestion, which I rejected). Wednesday wasn’t an intentional similarity on my part, but there you go! I’ve come to like her now – I mean, pale and proud, peter pan collars and a penchant for black clothing? The affinity is certainly there. So who better to channel for Halloween? (And no, not Princess Leia…)
Happy Halloween! x
