Bizarre Halloween story -  I had been working night shift in an emergency service on Halloween night, not an easy one as you could imagine.  Came home to discover that my Dad, a mad scientist that glowed in the dark and discharged voltage when he passed a lamppost, had dressed up as an old lady for Halloween night and had stayed dressed up for me to see him when I got home.  A disturbing image that is burnt into my mind, no man should see his dad dressed in tights and a dress!!
