Walking home along the towpath of the Regent's Canal last night I was amazed to see 3,000 pumpkins lined up on the Canalside Steps!

They are there all day today and tomorrow and worth a look if you're in the King's Cross area.

The pumpkins must look brilliant by candlelight

There were some really well carved and fun looking pumpkins.

Everywhere seems to going Halloween-mad this year. On my walk to work I also had a go at a 'Guess the weight of a giant pumpkin' competition that Sourced Market in St Pancras International Station were running.

I guessed the big pumpkin weighed 18 Ib, 11oz, but on reflection I think that may be a little light
