Entirely appropriately, we apparently had a bat flying around our garden yesterday evening, for about half an hour, squeaking joyfully - no doubt feasting on all the insects that tend to nest in our tree. I hope he comes back this weekend, as I won't be around at the right sort of time (sunset) to see him during the week.

My Hallowe'en plans consist of: 

- French Onion soup with cheesy garlic bread
- Sponge cake with fruit and cream, possibly with the sponge soaked in some sort of orange/Kirsch mix, I haven't decided yet
- One of the following films/TV shows from our collection: House, Evil Dead 3, Bubba Ho-Tep, From Dusk 'Til Dawn, Buffy (the episode with the teeny-tiny fear demon), Nightmare Before Christmas, Doctor Who: The Hand of Fear... or some other options that I've forgotten offhand.

*feels cosy*

ETA: Oh... crap.
