Hallowe'en (This is Mrs Red posting as Mr Red btw)



Righty Ho, we've just been running through the calendar and things are starting to get a bit busy so we wanted to update you all on our thoughts about the forthcoming weeks.



We're free for the Halloween weekend, and we thought it would be nice if you wanted to come here on the Saturday during the day and go to the Shakespeare County Raceway with us for the "Halloween Havoc" event. It's a drag strip and they usually have some great cars out on public track days. More info can be found here: <a href='http://www.shakespearecountyraceway.com ... p?event=64' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Halloween Bonfire Burn-Up</a> we thought it's probably KW's kind of thing, but if Zabz and JJ want to make a carfull we could all go for the day.



Afterwards, we can all pile back to JJs house for the usual festicles, it's really nice that we're close enough to each other to do this kind of thing. We can make our usual night of it, I'll provide the MEAD and then we can recover at our leisure on Sunday.



After Halloween things get a bit sticky, for Cyril visits we're home for the weekend of the 6th/7th of November, the following weekend we're going to the Wales Rally on the Friday, staying over until the Saturday to attend the rally, then coming home in time for my Mother and youngest nephews birthday parties which are on the 14th.



The next weekend we have tickets to Erotica in London (Dita Von Teese is the "Headline Honey" <!--emo&:aha:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/aha.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='aha.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) so we'll be going to Londinium for the day although we have nothing planned for Sunday so there's a possibility we'll be home at a reasonable enough time to have visitors as long as you don't expect gourmet and witty repartee.



The weekend of the 27th November we're totally free so if anyone wants to snap us up for that weekend let us know so we can put you on the calendar.



And in a blink of an eye it's December...... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Scratch that!! Dita Von Teese is premiering her new "Opulent Opium Den" show at 6pm each evening, so we've got to stay for that!! <!--emo&B)--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/cool.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='cool.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Wow, Dita Von Teese.... sounds great!!

Can I just check is that on w/e 19-21 Nov?



I'd love to go and JJ can join if he finds his thong <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

For Halloween, I will be joining a little later, one of my closest friends will be passing through Londinium on Sat 30th and I really want to catch up with her. She is planning on heading off around noon so I can get the train anywhere then. If we are all at JJ's I would really really appreciate a lift from MC or Northampton train station to JJ's, there is Rum or Wine or Beer or Tahini or a combination of these in it for whoever obliges. If we go to Strat I can meet youz in town...

We'll be no more than a tube stop away that weekend, so even if we don't actually go perhaps we could all meet up?

Thanks for letting me know.... <!--emo&:unsure:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/unsure.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='unsure.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It's the last weekend of October. I expect there will be many apple related things; and possibly some pear related things if I talk nicely to the Wobblies and get my fluffy whatnots organised.



There will definitely be booze.



There's a very small possibility of a fire if we have surprise un-rain <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->



Zabz will be coming I guess around 6:30pm depending on the joys of public transport all joining up conveniently; earlier if one of us can pick her up from MKC.



As usual, anyone arriving before 4pm will be expected to help prepare. Before 2pm, you may have to wake actually me up - and no, the door bell isn't fixed! After 8pm you may miss some of the food and certainly some some of the booze!
Just a reminder. Earlier in the day I think I'll be busy preparing and Zabz has friends plans, so I don't think we're going to make the track day.



Zabz, someone will definitely pick you up if you can make it to N'pton at a sober time. Text me with an ETA at least 10 minutes before you need us there.



The Reds, can you bring me my coat please!



Zabz, can you bring me my cheese and "I don't believe it's butter" please!



I always leave something behind <!--emo&:shame:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/shame.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='shame.gif' /><!--endemo-->



Me, I have already placed the food order so we should have pig and sheep to wash down with red wine and whisky; I think there's about a pound of flesh per head. I didn't get any real beer though because I can never choose what to get.



KW, If you still have some, any chance of bringing about 3 pears for the spiced cyder thing? Thanks!

Cyril, sorry we'll have to play another day although you may be on your tenth new coat by then the way the calendar is looking <!--emo&:snake:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/snake.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='snake.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Oh, and if anyone knows what to do with a HUGE pumpkin, can they show me on Saturday. It was 50p and nearly the size of my big head <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Cut the lid off, scoop out the seeds and either wash and toast them for a snack, or chuck them away. Use a sharp spoon to scoop out the flesh for a pumpkin pie, leaving about 1/2 an inch all around, make the inside of the bottom flat for a tealight and then carve a scary face in the front.



Place outside, wait for the kiddies <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->



Give pumpkin flesh to Mrs Red so she can turn it into PIE!! <!--emo&:whip:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/whip.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='whip.gif' /><!--endemo-->
