Hi DOD
I thought the plates were so beautiful I couldn't leave them in the shop.  I think my favourite it the JOL but I love them all! 
 
I think the neighbours where I live think I am strange anyway as ours is the only house in our road that goes all out at Halloween.  Last year my daughter and I we out in the street welcoming our guests as they arrived to the party, there we were in full costume/make up and I did get some very strange looks but what the heck....we had FUN!  
The other day as I was leaving work I thought I would pop into a shop near by to where I work...it sell a lot of Antique/oddities.  Well I am on the look out for a large iron/metal couldron and I thought to myself that if any shop might have one they might....so in I went and politely asked if they had any couldrons?....
"What.....Witches type couldrons?????" came back the reply
Yes I answerd    
Well......you would have thought that  I had asked about whether they sold pieces of the moon or something!
Needless to say they didn't have one.
Now everytime I walk past there is always a lot of nudging and whispering.  but hey ho!!!
