was about, as one of my sons friends asked me and I didn’t really know.
Actually makes a bit more sense now. I guess its been embraced in
the US far more than here in the UK… although given the numbers of extremely
small witches, goblins, mini-draculas (and two very short stormtroopers) that I
have seen tonight I think we are fast catching up.</span></font></p>
