Njugle Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 do any bairns still go kell castin or is it? Or is it another Victim to PC crap I believe it is.Constable Crap is very strict when it comes to matters of vegetable abuse. I know, it's terrible! They even take a dim view of major firework assaults nowadays. I reckon that's what's wrong wi' the youth of today: No possibility of urban terrorism! Still, i uphold the tradition...........and that's all i can reveal about that....ahem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evian2 Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 I felt this needed a thread to itself. I used to Kale cast many years ago, has this died out?What are the origins of it?Is there an underlying occult element to it, or did someone one day just go, mmm, kale - in front doors on halloween = fun!

Styles Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 I loved kell casting, best bit was if you got someone who would chase you! Mind us being mad with the fireworks as well, great days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twerto Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 it a thing traditionally done by kids usually.. where they raid a vegetable crop and well chuck it through the owners door.. or neighbours door or take it home for mum, from what I remember.. A twist on knock door run you could say.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellsbells Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Kale castin is still alive an well oot here on the westside. I am awaiting the little darlings and hope to catch some o them this year. Last year my glass inside door nearly copped it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njugle Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 ^ further: kell or kale=cabbage, castin'=throwinghence "cabbage throwing", though the usual weapon of choice was neaps for us(turnips) Can't say any of my peers took neaps home, but we did sit in plots eating them as well as throwing them, which was ironic as given a cooked neap at home i would turn my nose up at it, but in a field in the dark, man they never tasted so good. People take things like this more seriously nowadays, and kids are far too 'cool' to be bothered with it*. [edit] * apart from out in the westside, it seems!
