When opening the door 2 3 jammy faced baseball capped hooligans grunting, 'trick or treat' I find that if I pretend to be an illegal immigrant and ask for a 'Treat' and continue to do so despite their protestations I find they soon get bored and bugger off.

keeps me amused anyway!

They'd get a fist in the snoot round JJ Towers: T-or-T is a ghastly, acquisitive US phenomenon that has nothing to do with our proper Euro celebration of Walpurgisnacht, aka All Soul's (the Xian highjacking thereof).

The Celtic Samhain is today (Nov. 1st) and apparently the US custom does derive from that via Northern England, according to Bamber Gascoigne anyway (Encyclopaedia of Britain).
