Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 5.7 here. Am I the only curmudgeon that'll be drawing the curtains firmly and switching off the outside lights in the hope of a peaceful evening?

Nope. Fortunately our neighbourhood has an agreed principle that only houses with a pumpkin/something similar on display are 'open for business'. Saves a lot of elderly people from having to confront large groups of hooded teenagers late in the evening.
 
They're very good around here, I once bought a ton of sweeties and nobody came near then I realised it's because these are old people's bungalows. I'll keep my pumpkin in the back window and not confuse them... Happy Halloween all. 7.7 @ 7.17am for me today.

Good morning everyone. 11.1 today. We will be putting the lit up pumpkins in the front garden at 5pm and will be waiting with Halloween buckets full of sweets. We used to hide but have found it more fun giving out the treats 🙂 I've also decided to do Nanowrimo - that should keep me busy during November 🙂
I have decided to to Nanowrimo too, already worried I will fail! Wish you success with your writing.
 
I’ve aleady pulled the plug out of our porch light, but just incase, I do have a pack of funsize maltesers in.
 
Morning all, 5.7 today after a few odd 6s - but I felt a slight sore throat coming on over the weekend which seems to have disappeared.

We don't have much in the way of Hallowe'en thugs around here, but then we have two mosques around the corner and most people don't bother 😱

I've got a box of celebrations in, just in case, and if I don't need them I'll put them in the kids' stockings at Christmas. ( I know, I know, my kids are in their twenties, OH thinks I'm mad...)
 
Afternoon! was 5.3 before brekky today. When we lived in civilisation, we had pumpkins outside to lure in the trick or treaters. We get no one where we live now.
 
I tried that once, but unfortunately ran out of steam - good luck! 🙂
Thank you Northerner. I'm not surprised you ran out of steam. I wrote 1750 words today and was shattered awfterwards! But it was good fun. I think I will end up nearer 5000 words than 50,000 :D
 
I have decided to to Nanowrimo too, already worried I will fail! Wish you success with your writing.
Sorry for ignorance, what is nanowrimo

What on earth is a nanowrimo?!🙂

Nanowrimo is a group/movement where people aim to write a 50,000 novel in November. Obviously only a very rough draft and a lot of debate as to whether 50,000 words is enough for a novel (I don't think it is). According to statistics only one fifth of those who commit to it actually manage to complete and register 50,000 words in November 🙂
 
@Carolg @Bloden I think its national novel writing month, I cheated I googled it! :D x
 
GOOOOOOOOOooooood Morning World!
at 5.37 I am 4.7. before bed 5.8.
Enjoy life and have a great day ALL
