Go on then.....how many will you be having ? How many have you bought the kids ? Or are they a waste of money.

I usually tuck into the kids as the get bored of them very quickly and don’t actually eat that much chocolate.

I love diary milk or Galaxy

I ate mine a couple of weeks back. It stood there, staring at me on the shelf for days, insisting.

[Funkydrummer]

I've been given one, plain chocolate Bourneville egg.

It looks extremely good to me.

Let's get some Easter facts thrown onto the board.

The tallest Easter egg recorded was made in Italy in 2011. It stood at 10.39m in height and weighed 7200 kg.

All is not lost the wifes off to Booths in Settle perhaps an Egg (or two) might be imminent

[Claretpants]

Managed to get a dozen on shopping home delivery- going to drop one on door step of each neighbour with a child to give them a little smile on Sunday and even bigger smile for me

Little things give us all a lift

[Aclaret]

Around 80 million boxed Easter eggs are sold in the UK every Easter......I nearly said " And Bosscat hasn't got one" Fingers crossed for Bosscat

Is that through choice now you are on your keep fit regime

Is that through choice now you are on your keep fit regime

I could say, being diabetic, that it is by choice but I'll be honest and admit that if I'd have remembered I'd have given myself a treat and ordered one with my delivery.

Fitness regime? - I think I'm past that to be honest. It's just good to get out so I'm not banging my head against the wall in the house.

No Easter eggs for me

And this is the first Good Friday ever that I haven't had a hot cross bun

[Aclaret]

Bit of a double whammy there Spades, hope you manage to get through it.

[Loyalclaret]

My wife has finished 15 so far and has about 6 that were meant for family members who we are not currently seeing due to the lockdown.

As a chocoholic, she assures me this is the best time of year

No hot cross bun either - the day gets worse
