Lily can already picture it — flickering candles, spooky snacks, everyone in witch hats. So she fires off a message to their group chat 'The Gossip Girls': “Saturday night. My place. Halloween. You dare to come?” Within ten minutes: Sophie has a work party, Lisa’s away for the weekend, and Kate’s stuck at her sister-in-law’s. Sorry-sorry-sorry. So… that’s that. Unfortunately. By Thursday morning, halfway through laundry, she suddenly thinks, Why not today? After all, Thursday nights are when everyone’s usually just melting into the couch, scrolling, yawning, and pretending to watch TV anyway. Message sent: “Witches’ Night. Tonight. There's wine, cheese and chocolate. No excuses. And ... smokey eyes!” And they actually do. By 8 p.m., the kitchen smells like cinnamon, Ben looks slightly alarmed by the eyeliner situation, and Lisa’s wearing a full-on witch hat. No décor, no plan — just four women talking too loud, sipping wine, and pretending the tea lights are magic candles. Sometimes, “just a Thursday” turns out a little bewitched.
