Their mother writes. "Boy wants to know what YOU'RE going as". In my head, I am going as a pumpkin and will look like this:
I have sent them the Picture, and hope they will be able to Visualise me in my New Outfit. However, the quality of drawing is not good, and I am Concerned, particularly as their mother is an Extremely Talented Artist and once, not so long ago, drew a juggling elephant without even drawing breath. I can only aspire to such things. Still, I like my green curly shoes and stalk hat VERY much.

So, Tracy Lynn from Kaply Inc sent me here through the Monkeybarn (monkeybarn.blogspot.com) because you are part of her daily reading. Lord, any person who can use "whilst" correctly is all right by me!
well, i think it's splendid too... but i worry about how you pee/eat/drink vodka in it.
Tiff. Hello and welcome. Cup of tea? Thank you for your kind comments. I will Astonish you with the correct useage of 'infer' and 'imply' any day now. Hold on to your SPLENDID hair!
LP, there are Tubes and Access points round the back. Also I have a head like an owl and can spin round and that with my feet and and hands facing forward. The boys love it.
I have a sweater that makes me look just like that.
Am thinking about donating it to Goodwill.
Educational, if slightly dull note - Owls can only turn their heads through about 270 degrees, and not the 360 of popular myth.
Not entirely germane to the discussion, I accept, but you never know whena zinger like that might come in handy: Especially if you're factoring impressionable young boys into teh equation.
I should think if you could get your hands to your mouth to eat it would be the ideal outfit - no need to worry about your tummy whatsoever!
Slight worry re low doorways... could be painful if the hat were actually attached.
Mist - please send to me in London (will pay for postage) - may save on Costume Making time
Mikey - Oh Mikey. Why you kill my dreams with your evil sensible comments.
Ms Baroque - is OK, the hat as an automatic sensing device and collapses when I approach doorways or other things that may knock against my head, e.g. cupboard doors and local ruffians.
mikey's like the wikipedia of life, innit?
glad to know you're better than an owl with greater degreeage of head turn (don't look that word up. please)
Orange is very you, darling
Lucretia and Lucy. Obviously, being called Lucy gives you great good sense and ENORMOUSLY good taste. I kiss you.
we lucies are the future.
I feel strong.
I worry that you may be attacked by some hooligans and sent rolling down the green.
Those shoes, however, are so very festive that I can hardly stand it.
TL - I take commissions. Do you want some Christmas ones?
Clare - is your book writing making you BLIND? I CANNOT draw for the toffee. (Slade School of Art told me so, so it Must Be True.). I kiss you.
