A Child On Fire, and What Sainsburys Did Next (and a huge hoorah for Claudia Winkleman)

This week I received a press release from Sainsburys, about their 2015 Halloween Dressing Up range – so far so ordinary. But then one particular paragraph caught my eye: “This autumn Sainsbury’s will be offering a host of creepy character costumes for every member of the family (even the dog!) and is making Halloween safer for shoppers as all dress up products now meet the British Nightwear Flammability Standard, which is...
