Kingsway Halloween 2008
Created by CliveHalloween 2008 and – once again – the kids were out in force, terrorising villagers in an attempt to extort free goodies, as trick or treat fever hit Kingsway Village.
Sadly – owing to some terrible planning on my part (and – to be fair – recent illness and a very busy time) – my camera battery was woefully underpowered
so I only managed a handful of pic’s this year, and didn’t make enough for a gallery (like the 2007 Halloween Pics).
We did see hundreds excited children in a variety of excellent outfits and I did manage a few scary snaps… (click the pics to see them in full-size):
Phoenix and brother Cheyenne (above-Right) braved the freezing cold and walked miles (along with mum and dad… sigh), knocking on hundreds of doors (mostly those with a pumpkin on display, although we also tried many houses with lights on show) and both the kids came home with enough sweets (& other goodies) to see them through ’til Christmas!
Once again the response was fabulous, Kingsway Villagers were well prepared and really entered into the Halloween spirit.
Special apologies to all those who went to so much trouble to decorate their houses, I really would have liked to photograph a few.
Huge THANKS to all those who generously donated to Phoenix’ and Cheyenne’s tooth decay campaign
See you all again in 2009

We got… wait for it… 1 knock at the door!
Now what to do with the bucket of sweets we bought for the kids?
Guess they’re for the big kids now

I got 4 knocks and loads of people who walked on by. I can only assume it was the lack of a pumpkin outside… I guess that’s a good thing though for those peeps who dont want to be bothered…
And to the ghost that tripped up over my bush and dropped his sweeties… I hope you are feeling better
