I thought it was 50?
I shall be rolling my egg in that direction when MrPal allows me of such action which should be early next week
Edit: Can i just say silvercar means 40/50 commitments to roll a an egg and not "spare" an egg as that may breach MSE rules :A
I'm sure sjay would be up for a "joint roll" but she'd probably read it all wrong :rotfl:0 -
In an effort to keep this thread on topic for the board......
I'd encourage everyone to buy a chocolate easter egg before prices rise and you are priced out of easter egg ownership.
A cocoa shortage is driving up prices.Feb. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Cocoa rose the most in eight weeks in New York on signs that demand may exceed global production of the chocolate ingredient. Coffee declined.
World cocoa output will trail consumption in the current season, extending a production deficit, Macquarie Group Ltd. said yesterday in a report. Growers will produce 3.59 million metric tons of beans in the year through September, Macquarie estimated. The supply outlook is supporting futures at current prices, said Dennis Cajigas, a Lind-Waldock analyst in Chicago.
“The market itself does have that shortfall” taken into account, said Cajigas, a senior market strategist at the unit of MF Global Holdings Ltd.
Cocoa futures for May delivery rose $76, or 2.5 percent, to $3,116 a metric ton on ICE Futures U.S. in New York in the biggest gain for a most-active contract since Dec. 16. The chocolate ingredient has climbed 16 percent in the past year, partly on speculation that global supplies will dwindle.
The Valentine’s Day holiday on Feb. 14 in the U.S. creates more demand for the chocolate ingredient, Cajigas said.
“Valentine’s and Easter oftentimes do give a bit of an increase of commercial demand,” he said, referring to the Christian holidays. Easter Sunday is April 4 this year.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

Surely it's the rolling of the easter egg that's important though ?
If lots of people roll at the same time it could be like that Sony Bravia advert with all the bouncy balls, only with a much more chocolately 'feel' to it ?
That'd be a lovely sight to see.It all seems so stupid it makes me want to give up.
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid ?0 -
