If you moved to North American would you celebrate Halloween

We celebrate Halloween here too, just not to the extent that you do. Children go trick or treating, pumpkins carved etc, but it's not a huge deal really. Everyone that I know gives out stuff at Halloween, but it tends to be small amounts of money, not sweets.

Personally I celebrate both, as do most people, so I don't understand why he wouldn't want to join in. But no, it's not an English thing. He must just be anti social.

I'd love to take part in a Halloween that's a big event. It must be so cool to get dressed up and wander the streets getting free sweets. Though I may be too old to do that now *g*
