*42 cleaning bots enter and start cleaning, painting, refurbishing and stocking shelves*
Bot #1: Make haste, make haste, the 1st of November 2011 is just around the corner

*climbs on a table and gives the bots a worried look*
I once saw a raving mad cleaning bot...

A raving mad cleaning bot?

That might have been a Dalek reject. When they come out missing that killer instinct they set them up as cleaners. 
Why are we in NOVEMBER, when we haven't yet had our Halloween Party?

*is woken up by all commotion going on around her*
*sneezes*
*calmly moves her feet out of the way of the nearest cleaning bot*
*anxiously looks around and is relieved to see that the Aroma Cafë cleaning bot hasn't managed to find its way here*

The way things are going we should easily be able to have a Hallowe'en party in here, the bots seem to be nearly finished with their w*rk
Look, the 
tap is already up and running

If we have the party here and wake up with hangovers, we'll already be in November and won't have to hunt for it.

Hmmm... I wonder if Village de la Vavoom is still inhabited?
*sneaks out discreetly*

G&T is probably appropriate for any occasion.

Hypatia Posted Oct 25, 2011
A G&T would go down quite nicely right now. It's been a wild afternoon and early evening.
In these parts, cider is consumed in enormous quantities around Hallowe'en.

We live near Somerset where the cider is made. 
The last time I was here the Village was being occupied by strangers.

I remember that. That was about the time I took a hiatus from the site altogether. Then when I came back, the old CP was very slow indeed.

Only over in the darkest corner
Be careful not to trip over the there, they can be difficult to see

Luckily I come from the part of the world where's no Halloween nor cider, so I can drink whatever I want whenever I want.
