Halloween. For those who don’t consider it a holiday, I guess it’d be Thanksgiving.
I don’t view Halloween as a holiday so I’d agree it is Thanksgiving. And of course my fave part is all the food! And football.
Yep! 👍🏻
Halloween, Thanks giving, Christmas and then EiD.
Which is your fave?
Eid
I guess it would be Thanksgiving, since Halloween isn’t a holiday. I order food and pick it up. Boom!
Easy peasy lemon breezy! lol
Thanksgiving – no plans
We are going to Cherry Grove Beach this year for Thanksgiving. Relaxation at its finest.
Well we have Halloween, but that’s tosh since they did away with Mischief Night. Then it’s Christmas and the best part of that is the 2nd December. Should keep questions like that away from grumpy old Yorkshireman 😂😂
Do you guys celebrate an equivalent to our Thanksgiving Day?
No, we’re thankful every day 😂
Wit permeates your being sir! lol
They did away with parties and costumes at the elementary schools for Halloween. I think it’s a shame.
Definitely, we all like to dress up 💃😀
Thanksgiving, a time to be thankful and celebrate with a family reunion.
I L-O-V-E Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving coming up. Being with as many family as possible is the best.
I agree. I love Thanksgiving.
I suppose it would be Halloween, However I disagree with Charlie and say the next big thing for us is Fireworks Night, then Christmas, followed by Boxing day
What is Fireworks Night?
Other than the obvious answer. lol
LOL on the 5th November, we celebrate Guy Fawkes night, its where Guy Fawkes and a few others tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament when the King was there in 1605, he was trying to put a Catholic king on the throne. He failed because one of the idiots sent a letter to a family member warning him not to be there, when they blew it up, family member went straight to the king. I am never sure whether we celebrate the fact Guy Fawkes failed or if he tried.
We use to burn guys on the bonfire, but now we burn anything that pisses us off, last year or the year before someone made a massive David Cameron (previous Prime Minister) and set fire to that.
As soon as the last firework goes off, most people start thinking about Christmas
Interesting tradition. I’m off to Google to learn more. 🙂
Its one of the few times we are legally allowed to use fireworks, most of the year its illegal
And that is your English history lesson (although King James 1st was King James 6th of Scotland, they seem to like him, he was also the first King to rule over both England, Ireland and Scotland
