10 SMILES OF THE WEEK

▼ TRICK OR TREAT

Get ready for a few knocks at the door on Wednesday as the kids go guising.

▼ BACK IN TIME

We hope you enjoyed that extra hour in bed this morning. What do you mean you forgot the clocks went back?

▼ TURN THE PAGE

You know how they say everyone has a book in them? Well, Thursday is the time to start scribbling, as November is National Novel Writing Month.

▼ FEATHERED FRIENDS

More than 200 birdwatchers flocked to a man’s living room to stare at a rare species in his garden. We hope it was just a flying visit!

▼ BEE COOL

The hot summer has meant a bumper crop of honey. The honey will be pulling in funny money!

▼ SKY TAXIS

Flying taxis could be allowed to take to the skies in the next few years, say the the European Aviation Safety Agency. So when you phone for a lift, you really will get one…

▼ BACK WITH A BANG-ER

It’s National Sausage Week…the perfect excuse to have a roll and square for breakfast or good, old bangers and mash for tea. Mmmm!

▼ FE-LINE FINE

It’s the purr-fect excuse for cat lovers to spend more time with their fourlegged friends...tomorrow marks National Cat Day. Pawsome!

▼ WOMAN OF NOTE

A new £20 Scottish bank note featuring Kate Cranston is the first to feature a woman other than The Queen on the front. Go, girl!

▼ SPARE CHANGE

A lucky lottery winner in the US has scooped a record $1.6 billion. We say we wouldn’t let that amount of money change us...but it absolutely would.
