Why didn’t the skeleton go to the party?<\/span>
\nBecause he had no body to go with.<\/p>\n

HAHAHA. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
\nThat was lame. Wait. I can do better.<\/p>\n

Why didn’t the skeleton go on the roller coaster?
\nBecause he had no guts!<\/p>\n

Still bad?
\nOk. Let me try again.<\/p>\n

What do ghosts eat for dinner?
\nSPOOKETTI!!<\/p>\n

Thank you, I’ll be here all week.<\/p>\n

Whether you celebrate Halloween or not, here’s some nifty tricks and treats for you in English.<\/p>\n

Find out how\u00a0sounding like a baby<\/a>\u00a0can help you nail one of the most difficult sounds in English.<\/p>\n

Learn how\u00a0playing with animals\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0can help you remember which preposition to use.<\/p>\n

If you’re in doubt on whether to say ‘much’ or ‘many’, just say ‘a lot of’ – that works for everything! (And the same is true if you’re confused about ‘a little’ or ‘a few’ – just say ‘not a lot of’ and you are good to go!<\/p>\n

Here’s a treat for you – my free\u00a0Telephone Skills PDF\u00a0<\/a>– so helpful if you use the phone at work!<\/p>\n

If you think doing grammar exercises is a treat (and if so, I love you)\u00a0hier<\/a>\u00a0are some fun ones to try!<\/p>\n

And, last but not least, if you want to increase your scary vocabulary, check out this\u00a0video<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Don’t be scared of ghosts today when they come to call.
\n(Be scared of ghosts any other day, though.)<\/p>\n

Whether you celebrate or not, have a lovely last Monday in October!<\/p>\n

Oh, and just one more before I go (just call me Columbo, yo),<\/p>\n

Why should you always hire a cannibal?
\nBecause they have an impressive range of skulls.<\/p>\n

Thank you. Stay fabulous!
