It's once every seven years or so that this most sweet of
holidays falls on a Saturday, so despite the damp forecast, there
are plenty of things on tap for this All Hallows' Eve.
So plan your day accordingly, and remember, with
daylight-savings time falling on 2 a.m. Sunday, it effectively adds
an hour to the festivities! Sweet!
