Well it would appear that you have at least beaten the supermarkets to the
post this year on that one Brian. There are no Easter eggs on the shelves
yet.

Now I called in at the local shop on my way back from work today to find my
nextdoor neighbour shopping for Kinder Surprise - he said it was important.

Well bugger me! I've seen Asda selling cream easter eggs in the middle of
January, but that really takes the cocoa. BTW, I rarely see the insides of
a Tesco, it's a shop that both me and SWMBO abandoned many years ago.

Sigh - now the grandkids will each want one to go with chocolate xmas
bunnies (same bunnies from Aldi but in different wrapping) that they've only
just found lying about in needles of the xmas tree.

I've seen "Back to school" in July - before the end of term - which must
cheer up the kids no end.

Besides, I can't celebrate Ēastre's feast before Yule is properly over ;)

Just noticed M&S have five different flavours of hot-cross buns, two of
which are also available in bite-size.
