Mine too. These were last year's pumpkin carving efforts. This year I've had a request (from my 7-year-old, unsurprisingly) for one in the process of throwing up the innards. Should be fun...

... the boxer?

Thanks for the comments folks ... I was just meaning to reinforce the "Halloween Avatar" thing, and give the "judges" a focal point thread to look at :sneaky:

My son (aged 19!) asked if we can do a pumpkin again this year .... I think I'll suggest he carves it himself this year, if he wants one! :)

Yes the boxer (it was a joke, boom boom). My cat in the mask (avatar) thinks he super scary.
We recently had a 14th birthday party, 13 kids carving pumpkins with one adult present, guess who had to scoop out most of the innerds.... Never again.

Top tip, do not let pumpkin innerds dry out on your floor, it sticks like bloody cement, still scraping it off now, two weeks later....

Youngest has also asked me to do the throwing up pumpkin.
