If you're like me and make those around you very nervous if you're weilding any sort of sharp instrument, here's a slightly safer way to carve your jack-o-lantern. |

This is the first pumpkin that I've carved, as Halloween isn't a big celebration here in Australia. P.S. How do I make my pumpkin appear - I've tried everything! |

Denis, everyone has been saving their pumpkins as jpegs and putting them up somewhere. Halloween didn't used to be that big here (in England) either. We were the only family I knew that used to celebrate it when I was growing up. It's originally Irish/Scottish and Jack o lanterns used to be made from turnips. Reality Internet Personality |

Yes, I remember that here from my childhood, where my brother and his friends were getting turnips to carve from the local farmer. Then the tradition disappeared untill about 5 years ago, where it was imported from USA, as many other things such as Valentine's Day.

I did do a turnip one year when I left it too late to buy a pumpkin and they were all sold out. My son's birthday is on Halloween (he'll be 5 this year) and even on the day he was born I still carved a pumpkin! [Edit] God, that sounds like the preamble to a really long birth story - honest I'm not going to tell you all about the 24 hour labour..giggling midwife high on gas and air...no..[/Edit] Reality Internet Personality |
