    Bit chilly here too, about 4C, sun coming out. And set to be this way for next couple of weeks. At least it's not wet and windy.

    Brilliant, quite envious. I miss the excitement of egg hunts now that the "girls" are older - however, with a bit of luck will have it again in a couple of years time.

    I reckon Eater egg hunts are something for posh folk and southerners Up here our tradition is to roll your eggs down the hill on Avenham Park. Chase them down the hill, wipe the dog shit off, and you're good to go

    Oh yes, great fun! All eggs found, there was much excitement.

    Never had egg hunts or egg rolling where I'm from. You got a couple of eggs, ideally with chocolate buttons, a mini chocolate bar or mini flake inside. You scoffed the lot immediately and moved on. That was Easter.

    The downside to Easter was that there was a lot of church.

    At school you'd have a class mass some time in the week, about 40 minutes. Then a school mass on the last day before the holidays (about three hours). Then mass with the family on Good Friday (at least an hour) and then another one on the Sunday (again about an hour).

    Errr, lovely.
    I wouldn't go so far as to to call it lovely, but it probably helped to build up kid's resistance to germs. Shame really about the demise of white dog shit, which contrasted nicely against the brown-ness of the chocolate. All you can do now is sniff at the egg first

    At one of my suppliers yesterday, I asked a young lad in there if he was going to roll his eggs on Avenham park - he looked at me like I wasn't right in the head, then told me he'd probably roll them down the stairs at home. Kids today eh, bone idle buggers the lot of em...

    There's probably an egg-rolling game on the X-Box, rolling them down the stairs is only for the poor kids who can't afford video consoles.

    You're more likely to see joint rolling around here.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
