Returning for the third year and back by popular demand - well, doyen of the WAG-world @AnneKipankitoo has been pestering me to start one.

Change your name to something Hallowe'eny and post, telling us what your previous name was if you like and especially if you've chosen a pun on your old name. Leave it at that if you prefer, or post whatever you like in the spirit of Hallowe'en fun and shenanigans.

No voting, no prizes, all welcome in all your gory glory.

It's time to swap our pearls for skulls and clutch them instead. Come and join us...if you dare.

And I invoke the spirit of MNHWOOoooo: RELEASE THOSE HALLOWE'EN EMOJIS!!!

@TrickorSweets21 - the flag thing is, I think, a coat of arms for a pub in a radio soap opera called The Archers. The tennis ball might be for Wimbledon.

iklboogiemaninthecloset · 06/11/2021 14:05

@TrickorSweets21 - I will, thank you. No, it's 17 for a driving licence over here. We won't have much trouble finding an instructor for the time. DH is one 😄

TrickorSweets21 · 06/11/2021 14:07

@iklboogiemaninthecloset
Your DH is one brave hombre!

Correct, surely, @ArchwizardTVampirebat ? You were temporarily using my attic/bat roost as a gaff, were you not? Halloween Wink

I also had to return to wish one of @iklboogiemaninthecloset 's cats a happy 16th birthday. I am confused and slightly concerned to read that he will soon be learning to drive. Is that wise? Halloween Shock

😂 @TheWOooWOooWOoonlyMrsM - not sure their legs will reach the pedals! It was DS's 16th. Seems only 5 minutes ago he was born.

For the flag info...
I gave the mn app a look and got so confused with the format that I've decided I must give up on my dream of having a flag and a tennis ball in my kit of emojis.Halloween Biscuit...dont know when I'd ever even use them anyway.Halloween Grin

Congratulations to your DS and to you too, @iklboogiemaninthecloset - I understand with my own DC. In the blink of an eye. Flowers

As for the cats, I think they'd work as a team - one steering, gears and looking out and the other working the pedals.

Ohhh @TheWOooWOooWOoonlyMrsM I think you're on to something. The tuxedo is clever enough to steer. He can open a locked car flap by putting his claws under the edge & lifting it past the plastic stays.
