Halloween in Spain?

Quick question. Halloween stuff appearing in shops. In sa treat-or-treat very much to friends houses only. In Scotland guising was well escorted but every house. Will I get witches and demons at my door and what will they expect if I do?

Is there a phrase or more I should learn?

How do I say 'bugger off I've run out' in Spanish?

Just set the dog on them

That is understood in every language
The dog has thrown in the towel. I had to wake her up to introduce her to visiting neighbours. Her attitude seems to now be that if I can't make up my mind where to live she has better things to do, ie sleep, than protect us from the whole world.
You're a regular Irish scrooge then, bah humbug?
She is settling into the mañana state of mind easily so laugh
Bifffffffffff!!!! applause applause applause
Mimíiiiiiiiiiii!
I'm on smartie so adding emoticons is manual and involving much switching of keyboards and my tongue sticking out while I concentrate

Sad face
There was this one year that both my kids paid like £5 each to get into the Haunted Mansion during Halloween.


They came back all frightened and demanded to have all the lights switched on while sleeping.

I lost my cool and shouted, "How could you be that stoopid, paying money to be frightened!!" very mad
Attacking ax murderers or even witches and demons pounding at the door is not a manana activity

Scolding face
I bah humbug every potentially happy or fun events

It's cheaper
Well perhaps by the 31St someone will have an answer for my important questions

In the meantime this isn't buttering my parsnips and that unpacking won't do itself catch you later gators

Can't ask map because kids too scared to knock on his door, can't ask z because kids don't climb mountains and he would probably do a molly if they did.

So anyone?

Hji Biff.. wave
I don't speak Spanish so I have no clue how to say it. grin
Hmm.. I don't know but maybe because you and I come from different culture, I don't say that to anybody who knocked at my door on certain occasion, like Halloween although we don't have it here. I didnt mind when a bunch of boys or girls from my neighborhood knocked at my door gave me a list of "charity person" (meaning they asked money) a week before we celebrated our Independence Day. To me that meant I was considered part of them and wasn't considered dead.. grin
Can't help you with your question, but wanted to wish you best of luck and much happiness in your new home Biff. bouquet
Just be your usual pleasant self laugh
Im sure that will scare them away innocent

hole
KNenagh applause

Nice to see you on the blogs again hug bouquet
Nice pics Mimi! reunion

Literally have an hour in the house to lie in bed with the laptop and do nothing - so I thought I'll drop in and say hi. conversing

Great to see some good news! applause
Biff, after dissecting what appears to be some form of English that you´ve scribbled down I can tell you this.....have a bag of cash waiting for me or you´re gonna get it!wink
just say. 'mierda'laugh
Biffy, Dont worry about being accosted, they dont do the door to door begging thing here, more like private or town parties.
Get a dog.grin
Never mind halloween in Spain Biff....
i think you ought to get out of there real soon... talk is, its gonna blow uh oh dunno
Biff, it was Map said there would be no kids calling

That's because no kids have been born in his village since the Middle Ages laugh
There are a bunch of people who live in Spain on CS, and more who have best friends in Spain. Not a peep from anyone BUT Map

Tchah. Meanwhile I'm all out of teddy bear jelly babies, bar 2 I dropped on the front step in the scramble. Maybe they will mate and raise more?

Or maybe I will eat them now before any more scaries arrive at the door.

Decisions ...
Molly, Actually there are 8 kids here, they are from the big city though.

I did see a few kids in the town square all dressed in halloween stuff so perhaps we are entering the new age here, if only we had running water like the rest of the world.
I've never been there for Halloween

That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it snooty

Eat the bears
Eaten

I miss them already ...
I heartedly recommend living up a mountain, no a sign of a child all night professor mind you I did take the precaution of laying land mines in road earlier, just in case laugh
Meh!....Anyway I'm really glad that there is a halloween blog here, I had thought about adding one to the 9 on the first page. Not a dig at you biffy, yours was the first.
Z, sheesh, and there was me thinking you'd just set the dog on them. uh oh
Map I was about 2 weeks ahead of the pack and see how it paid off?

Not at all.
Or just sit in total darkness to avoid them, like Grinchy Me laugh
So long as the ravening pack was the only bunch (I have switched off all lights and am typing quietly in the dark, just in case) it is actually a good system, sending them all out at once.

If only I spoke Spanish. I could have asked one of the senior witches where she got her wig, it was AWESOME. Like Molly's hair, but with a couple of fluorescent streaks.

(Molls, that's a look you should try, at least once a year)
Map, your manflu making you grouchy? comfort

you'd be almost cured if you'd bought my muti grin
confused ok .. i'm taking it its all fake news........
which is actually good applause

Anyways, happy Halloween Ms Biff wine
My friend was wearing one of those for a Halloween party over there at the weekend. They must be in vogue this year
Itchy, no, not fake news, but I am nowhere near Barcelona and this is an ENORMOUS country!

And yes I must answer the earlier comments super
Pat, All Hallows Eve goes back a long, long, way, before religion - it was a pagan festival.

Kids in Scotland were guising long before trick-or-treating started in the US.

So current celebrations may be commercialized but it ain't an advertising mogul's invention laugh
M olly, you didn't look at her and think oh my I should be doing that? scold
Pat, Halloween comes from Ireland actually

It 7th an ancient festival

But then it was commercialised in the States, and it's never been the same again
Fir enough Biff handshake
but i was meaning something else, but no matter.... BS i'm sure wine
