Its the Mischief Night I dislike and the damage done by the people using it as a way to cause damage etc.
I feel ashamed at the media coverage on Merseyside about the mayhem caused (although it will happen in a lot of areas) to the emergency services.

Forgive me if there has already been a thread about this ( I’ve been away from GN)
I soooo dislike what has become of this so called festival. It is just another opportunity for shops to make money ( costumes , buckets , sweets ) and for children to eat loads of rubbishy sweets and become overexcited. What is there to celebrate about people who have died coming back to haunt the living?
