The Thousands

If every Halloween fell on a Friday, we could legitimately spend each October 31 getting trollied dressed as our favourite vaudeville carnie without turning up to work the following day sporting a genuine wish-we-were-dead hangover. But it only happens once in six years (that’s counting leap years. Yes we did the math). 2008 is one of those special years. And to toast this valid excuse to paint our faces and involuntarily laugh at ourselves while tripping over our own props, British Balls and Madam De Biers are hosting a big ol’ freak show at, you guessed it, Madam De Biers. -ST
