I am proud to say I cast quite a daunting shadow and would have made quite a frightening picture if only I could have stopped my tail from wagging on a continuous basis. I was reluctant to hand over all the chocolates but having failed on the \u2018totally scary dog\u2019 front I didn\u2019t fancy the \u2018trick\u2019 element. I was sorry to have missed out last weekend on the scary train ride that my master and mistress went on. It was only a large model train but it ran round through the trees, with odd strategically placed coffins and cobwebs. A howling dog could have really added an edge of authenticity. Now all I need to do is find a howling dog as it isn\u2019t my main attribute.<\/p>\n<p>I need to do some research on the Internet or go and buy a book, as there are mushrooms and toadstools absolutely everywhere. They are even growing in our lawn now that the moles have stopped digging it up. I can\u2019t believe there are so many shapes and colours, some of them must be safe to eat, I just don\u2019t know which. To be quite honest the shapes of some of them look rather on the rude side but I am too embarrassed to ask my mistress whether she has thought that too. I wonder if any of them are magic. I might find they have special \u2018medicinal\u2019 properties that transport me through the day in a cloud of daydreams. I may of course have spent too much time daydreaming and be in need of a serious touch of reality!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>So there you have it \u2013 \u2018Trick or Treat\u2019 becomes much more alarming when you are faced with a demented dog with a glow stick <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/2006\/11\/01\/wednesday-1st-november-2006\/\" title=\"Wednesday 1st November 2006\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5438,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-695","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=695"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/695\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=695"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=695"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
