A little bit late with this blog but one week ago today we held our annual Bonoween event which as usual was full of good fun and shenanigans. This year we had lots of new games to play such as sticking the eye on the Zombie, throwing the spider at the target, Halloween bingo, throwing inflatable rings on to the spider hat etc.etc.
However probably the most memorable part of this year's Bonoween was the quality of pumpkin recipes. You would think after all these years people would be running out of ideas, but this year there was some really scrumptious dishes from Zoe's cakes, Lisa's scones and Nicky's Mummy hotdogs. W=I won't mention Tina's soup and Matthew's cake which were on the lower end of the scale (to put it nicely).
Not much in the way of fancy dress this year, not really sure why. So, this year the trophy went to Nick who was pretty much the only one who bothered dressing up this year. Pumpkin carving award went to Lisa this year for her painted and bejazzled spider pumpkin but beat my Pumpkin Iron kettlebell which I was quite proud of.

| Only 10 points I am afraid. It was much harder than it looked to get the 100-point center. |

| Holly was being score master. |
