I've grown just the one pumpkin especially to carve ( would have been more but the slugs got them!) and was going to suggest pics from everyone of their scary efforts. I'd love to see everyone's Halloween monsters and what they used to carve them into. All up for it then?

What do you think to these, I really wish they were mine but alas there not...so much detail has gone onto them, they must have taken hours to carve.Comment

I love the design. I saw a couple like that when i was searching for ideas for mine, but that's the best! I love the expression on the little one.Current Executive Board Members at Ollietopia Inc:

Wow, didn't realise that so many people did pumpkins. Never encoutered it at all until a few years ago and had assumed it was just another US influence but it sounds like a fair few of you have been doing it for years. To be honest, haloween is something which has always just passed me by and something that really got on my nerves a few years ago as we seemed to get a spate of teenagers coming round demanding money with menaces for a couple of weeks before (MIL was particulary put out after some pretty big lads in scary masks turned up after dark and shouted trick or treat at her in a threatening manner) but thankfully that seems to have died out now.
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

My grandchildren (7 and 3 years) will be carving I hope - I grew a good sized one for them and have a smaller one for myself (to be cooked if I can find a nice recipe).My hopes are not always realized but I always hope (Ovid)

Some charming individual(s) are carving the pumpkins grown by my fellow plotholders, sadly not the plotholders who grew them.
I don't grow pumpkins and remove all my squashes as soon as the leaves wilt making them visible.Always thank people who have helped you immediately, as they may not be around to thank later.
