Shake Your FunnyBones!

Hey everyone,

One of my faaaaavourite holidays is almost upon us...Halloween!

I have to admit I'm not as excited as I was last year, where I went to a big house party hosted by some fellow Media students. Who, by the way, take Halloween EXTREMELY seriously.

Everyone had either made their own outfits!, or hired them from a shop which provides films and tv shows with their costumes.
The front room had a few of the lads who run the local dubstep night playing the decks, and it was a great atmosphere.

But this year, I haven't really got anything special planned.
That doesn't mean that I can't enjoy the spooky peices in the shops at the moment:


I of course named this set after my favourite books as a child, FunnyBones, which also spawned a cute TV show narrated by Griff Rhys Jones:



"In a dark, dark town there was a dark, dark street..."


This is just a short post, as I have a few planned coming up to Halloween - promise!

Muchos love,
MessyCarla.

  4. I never saw this series. Looks funny, but I think as a kid I would have been to scared to watch something with skeletons xD
    Hmm.. in Germany Halloween isn't a big thing. People just see a nother day to get drunk but not dressed up. :( sad.
