MWUHUHUHUHUHUHUHAAAAAAA

Greetings, Mumsnetters, put down your brooms for a second as it's time for this year's Halloween name-change competition! Halloween Grin

To take part and be in with a chance of winning a mystery, spooktacular prize, then:

  1. Change your username to something Halloween-y and preferably very amusing. Puns especially welcome.
  2. Post on the thread stating your original username.
  3. As we are a touch late this year Halloween Blush, there won't be time for the usual poll, so instead, MNHQ will pick the winner on Monday 31st.

Fangs a lot and good luck.
