    Hi @CarNineSix. Thanks for the idea. I'm actually planning on playing both the music playlist and projection playlist at the same time, just in a different way than how you suggest. The TV projection will be muted, and the music will be on a Bluetooth speaker from my phone. I'm a huge YouTube fan so it's one of the few things I splurge on. As a premium member, there are no ads and I can download stuff. So I will download the music to my phone, and stream the projection from the TV app.

    That's awesome that you'll get trick-or-treaters. None come to my door. Your decorations sound amazing! Is Halloween big in the UK?

    @StarryEyed, I imagine All Saints Day would be quite a spectacle. That's 01st November is it not?

    For Hallowe'en, i suppose Spanish kids have succumbed to all that tacky US business by now? They have in Scotland. When I was wee, we had 'guising', neep lanterns, dookin' for aippuls, all done with little cost. You had to sing a song or recite a poem for a sweetie, none of your trick or treat shenanigans.

    Found it @CarNineSix and added. Another connection with you at the party. Yay!

    Hi @ChrisR777. Actually it's not much of a thing here yet. It just started maybe four years ago. Kids often dress up at school now.

    You know, it never occurred to me what I've been saying since a kid, trick or treat. I had to Google it as to what it means. A bit slow on the draw perhaps ? Lol! We just said it without any tricks involved. But like you we sometimes had to "earn" our treat with a song or saying a joke or something. 😊

    Yes, November 1st, All Saints Day, is a really big thing here. They even have traditional sweets especially for this day. The family graveyards are traditionally visited. It's actually a national holiday. Kinda nuts, eh?
