HAPPY DAY OF THE DEAD, TTLG!
Like every year, November 2nd has once again come, thus I make a celebratory thread in the forums for my fellow TTLG peeps to have our own slice of Day of the Dead.
So drink, eat, love and live, but also remember those dearly beloved that are no longer with us. Reflect on your mortality to appreciate it as well as those close to you that are still around.

Thanks to you Duck and because my DOB is 2nd Nov, Portreath Cornwall now celebrates the Day of the Dead :D Well at least me and dear wife do....

Never has Death tasted soooo good!
I thought that the Bread of the Dead was a bony hand clawing the loaf away from your plate but sadly it only a radial decoration. I googled some images for Pan de los Muertos and my glycemic index went up a few points just from the pics. What a way to go...

dema - Domo arigato, dema-san :D
Meddeh - Hey, better two than none, eh? Happy birfday too, w00t w00t! P¬{
Nickie - A tasty way to go, neh? ;)

Isn't it supposed to look like a tarantula? Whatever it is, I'm not biting into it. :p

Hooray!
There's various Divali's around now too (kinda) so swap some sugar skulls with Hindu pals.
Nicker on 5/11/2013 at 22:04
Ducky. Do they sell Sugar Skull decorating kits like we have Easter Edd decorating kits?
This celebration must be quite an industry, a real pre-christmas boost for the local economy.

henke - You silly ignorant Euro fuck, c'mere! :D *Shags you*
Muz - Om nom nom food swap om nom!
Nicker - I dunno, but that's a good question! :D
