Shiver me timbers!

 

Blimey! That's no way for a seafaring pirate to end his days, not a kraken in sight! I came across my one and only nod to Halloween quite unexpectedly a few evenings ago while walking along the West Coast Road. My only participation in this event is handing out a few lollies on the night note to myself to make sure I have them, however others take it much more seriously, two levels of spider web and mumma spider serious :)  

I love that even though it was already pretty replete with pirate carcasses and the like the owner below felt more finishing touches were needed :)

The young boy below about to cross the road unaware of the dangerous mega arachnid giving no quarter awaiting on the other side.. the dog however looked pretty skittish 😉 I'm a day early I know but happy Halloween anyway.. take care and stay safe..

  2. Time for this home owner to call an exterminator. Not much meat on the pirate's bones.

  3. You wonder what dogs think of Halloween decorations.

  4. A strange Halloween here this year. No trick-or-treating or parties because of Covid restrictions have led to reduced sales of plastic rubbish in the shops. However with families looking for safe, healthy things to occupy the little ones during half-term holidays there's been record sales of pumpkins, especially direct from farms.

  5. Looks like the owner has made some good effort to decorating for Halloween. We don't see much here sadly but my daughter has a bowl full of lollies to give out in case anyone comes by.

  6. There don't seem to be as many decorations around as usual on our streets. The house that usually has the biggest display has nothing.

  7. That's quite the decoration for halloween. Nothing is going on here because of Covid and that's good unless you have little ones.

  8. Good effort by the person. Maybe you are two days early for some people.

  9. Dearest Grace,
    No, we never have spent any money on this invented commercial annual event... Nobody talks about the extreme plastic waste that is being caused every year!
    Hugs,

  10. I'd say they have a serious insect control problem. I'm with the dog. I think it's best to stay on this side of the road.

  11. Hallowe’en is different this year, as is everything else.

    That display is quite impressive.

  13. I haven’t see as many Halloween decorations this year. Although, we are to have our first sunny day today in awhile so I may venture out and see. We will not open the door to trick or treaters this year...

  15. I don't think I have ever seen a house in Australia decorated for Halloween. There was no need for me to stock up on lollies ... we are the youngest people in our street.

  19. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
    Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
