Thursday

I've made lots of cupcakes for any Halloween visitors. I've boxed fancier ones for the invited visitors. We don't get often trick or treaters as we are at the end of a very long road and, apart from the new neighbours, we are getting on. 

The invited trick or treaters are the new neighbours and Nigel's family. I doubt anyone else will come this far but am prepared, just in case.

Kelvin joined us in the cutting, with a chainsaw, this afternoon . He made light work of the recently fallen tree and the large shrubs it took down in it's wake. Tessa helped pile up the branches and prep them for a mega chipping session. Lots will be too wide for the chipper but it'll get used up one way or another.
