Alarm bells going off in my head say he may be going to his friends but the Halloween party is likely in the rough estate. Or at least its going to be a party with people that he doesn't know and he has admitted that (and I know what it was like when my group came into contact with other groups of young fellas at parties, 50/50 would end up in a fight and even higher if in one of the rough estates).

Do you let him go and stay over (and likely out all night on drink and maybe worse with the reasoning we were all young once and got up to all sorts?
Or let him go and say you will collect him from said party at a reasonable time?
Banning hin completely not really fair I guess.
LOL Life catches up fast 

Indeed LOL

Not too long ago, Andy would be telling us about being at said party after a night down level 4

He is going but getting a lift home from a friends dad, apparently. 

What are the bets something goes wrong?

A) Phone dead and no sign of him and on a search party all evening until he comes through the door at 2am
B) Begs can he stay, gets someone on the phone pretending to be a parent and that he can stay.
C) phone call of him in tears needing to be come collected

You're the adults, you set the rules. You pick a time and you pick him up or hes not going, end of story. Any pricking about and hes grounded.

My own parents at that age gave me a bit of freedom once I respected their rules. i.e they'd buy me a 4 pack of cans on the condition I drank no more and no spirits. I told them where I was actually going and be back when I was told. At 16/17 they had to drop me off and pick me up or I wast going. Though they were sound enough to park down the road out of view and let me walk down the road to them to save embarrassment.

Most my group of mates parents were like that, often we'd have gaff parties at Halloween or whatever with whoevers parents upstairs in the gaff but keeping out of the way and letting us do our own thing downstairs. Few cans, few games of FIFA/PES, few tunes and films or whatever. Everyone out by a set time.

Without it we'd have probably just have been sneaking out, or lying where we were going, getting blacked out drunk in a freezing cold field surrounded by all sorts of scummers.

My oldest sister's friend told her parents she was staying at our house when she was really at a boy's house bom chicka wow wow. Cue her parents ringing our gaff to check on her to much hilarity.

Our neighbour, slightly older than me, who I grew up with was a lot like a young Andy growing up. Now he's a very mature and responsible parent/step-parent who's inherited same house. My older brother was at his house and said that this lad took the door off the oldest's bedroom to prevent her sneaking out/trust issues or some such. Seemed a bit excessive. Even moreso considering their living room stinks of weed.
