Another new month is here! October is now upon us all.
The spooky month with Halloween in just a few weeks time. Autumn is well and truly here with Fireworks next month and Christmas the month after (there we said it!).
In the ancient Roman calendar, October was the name of the eighth month of the year. Its name comes from octo, the Latin word for “eight.” When the Romans converted to a 12-month calendar, they tried to rename this month after various Roman emperors, but October’s name stuck!
