@bjn we're going through slowly because many of the parents are restricting their kids to ONE SWEET
and you can see why cos the kids are toting carrier bags that are already half full of sweets
@davidgerard We were restricting them to one sweet each, but there must have been hundreds of kids out on the streets of W4.
I get day time trick or treating... but my heart says that it should be at NIGHT.
hold on a min. ... ya'll do that now over there?
I am told that trick-or-treating has gotten as far as Germany and is continuing to spread eastward.
@michael_w_busch @futurebird small children appropriate other small children's culture in the quest for sweets. i expect pinatas to show up more
@futurebird yuh
basically it's tiny kids going house to house with their parents or older siblings
the sun has already set in glasgow, so yeah
it's dry and relatively warm 11-12 C? right now
@davidgerard Just under an hour in and we’ve gone through all of our six giant tubs of sweets. Children are now pounding on the door.
