Haloween without the fun

This is Emma in her sexy cat-suit - all dressed up and nowhere to go. Why, oh why, has no-one invited us to a Halloween party? Well, as far as I can discover, its because no-one in these parts believes that Halloween parties are for adults. Obviously they dont know what they are missing. The pernicious tradition of trick or treating crossed the pond a few years ago - from the Land of Al Capone to the Land of the White Gloves. Until then, we used to call it demanding money with menaces and it was a criminal offence. We are used to the custom now, and sit in silence with all the lights off. But as a nation we have been slow to adopt the tradition of the strictly-for-adults, fancy-dress party in celebration of Halloween. What a pity! [I should perhaps explain that Wales was known as the Land of The White Gloves because a pair of white gloves was ceremoniously presented to visiting judges if there were no criminal cases to be heard - which was invariably the case in God-fearing Wales.]
