Ive had none this year, it's usual for me to have at least a couple, but none so far this year, come to mention it i didnt have any trick or treaters this year, looking at the age of the ones last year, they would all probably be int pub somewhere

Another ghost of Christmas past and traditition gone.When we were young most treated us for carol singing but some did throw a shoe at the door and told us to b****r off.
Replied: 24th Dec 2019 at 11:09

I remember when we went carol singing down Wallgate,the pub at the bottom of Queen Street used to give us two shillings (ten pence), we felt like millionaires..

Penny for the Guy, May Queens, Carol Singers, all consigned to history sadly.
Don't get me going about kids of today. No doubt most of the members will have the same conception. MERRY XMAS
