Happy Halloween

Pumpkins

There’s a goblin at my window,
A monster by my door.
The pumpkin at my table
Keeps on smiling more and more.
There’s a ghost who haunts my bedroom,
A witch whose face is green.
They used to be my family,
Till they dressed for Halloween.

Have a good night folks! :)

    Tonight will be long for me also. Tomorrow is indeed the day - although what time the button will be pressed is still an unknown variable! :)

    Hehe, that’s a cute poem! Did you write it?

    “The day” means the launch of Britster I’m assuming?

    No, I didn’t write it - but it’s fantastic isn’t it?! It’s one of those poems that had remained ingrained in me since I learnt it growing up! :)

    You’re correct in your assumption about “the day”… ;)

    Yup. The day is here… Didn’t get as much done last night as I was hoping - but it just means I’ve got to work harder today, right?

    Abi and I didn’t bother with fancy dress, but I had two witches, a fire fairy, a skeleton and a pumpkin in my house last night! ;)

    Hey! Smashing Magazine likes your header! Did you see?

  11. MyAvatars 0.2

    erm… ok, I guess they deleted that post. It was mostly in German, but it was a contest or something for headers. Not sure if it was for SM headers. That is so weird. Maybe if you look at the RSS feed you’ll see it. Sorry to get you all excited for nothing :(

    Thanks Wynn and Marty - I’m glad you liked it! :)

    What ARE you going on about Miss Marie?!? ;) I got featured in this article - was that what you saw?

    Can’t see anything in my feed reader!?! Perhaps they’re writing something new, and published it instead of previewing it?

    Let me know if you see it pop up again though!!

    Haha, this is rather comical. No, it wasn’t that one, it was posted Nov 11, but I think it was a mistake. I have it in my reader, here, screenshot it for you! I’m using Google. It was showing up in the RSS link for a bit, but it’s not there anymore. Maybe they’ll be posting it for real in a few days?

    Blimey. Must be an early draft for something, as you say… My German’s a little rusty, but I believe the text above those headers says something like “Why not see these fine examples for inspiration”.

    Cool! It’s always nice to get my design featured on another blog - I’m flattered (in advance). ;)

    Cheers! :)
