Halloween is very different in the middle of nowhere!
When we came to live in Scotland nearly seven years ago, we were introduced to the sweet tradition of ’Guising’. This is an old Scottish tradition where the children go out on Halloween in disguise as witches and the like.
Instead of Trick or Treat, the children go round the houses and perform a poem or a song or tell jokes before receiving nuts, apples and sweets.
It’s something that our daughter Zoe really took to and has enjoyed many years of fun.
Now she’s 15 – she is helping us celebrate by decorating the house and waiting for our little ‘visitors’ – she is delighted to be giving out the treats this year.
Wishing you all a very Happy and Safe Halloween.
