I'm afraid that seems to have been overtaken by actual actions for so many years that the 'true' meaning now ceases to be it:rotfl:. Or maybe it doesn't apply to adults but only to children:rotfl::cool::rotfl::rotfl:.

As to my creme/crime/grime eggs, I will have no problem using them all:):(. I made the mistake(?) of revealing, a few days to go to Easter, where they were - and let them have one. I've had one (or two) since. I came back yesterday and noticed - :eek:four more of them gone!:( (They only ever consume in multiples:(:(.) I've had another one since. So, now down to about half of what I bought:(:(. Two beer glasses full, now down to one:(. Already:eek:!:p They were due to last at least a week after the event! Now, I doubt they'll last half that time. I should have bought way way more than what I did (:( as definitely not MSE - so maybe I did right). But never mind - at least we still have half of the twenty:eek: creme eggs that I bought in the first place! Meanwhile two Smarties packs out of four, that I bought, at full price £1 offer:eek:, to replace a tube of 50p that they scoffed entirely, months before it was due, have now themselves been consumed despite me telling them not to take from the box that is in the future. Use the April box first:(! I was fuming:mad: - they don't take just one tube, but two!:eek::eek::(:(

Easter (and Christmas) are not about Christianity and sharing - they are commercialised festivals of overconsumption:(. Just a truth sorry - I know some people will find it wrong and even offensive to say (and especially more if it is true (or has at least some ring of truth)). But, in practice, by action, for most people, they really are. Sorry to speak the truth:(:eek::eek::rotfl:. At least we remember what (should be?) the true meaning though:). As in "should be", it's not true so we shouldn't pretend it is!:rotfl: Hopefully, I've confused everyone enough for no-one to know what I'm talking about now:rotfl:, so that no-one will risk being offended:cool::rotfl::rotfl:. (Sorry however if I have...)

Strange you should say that, I was just reading this blog.

Easter, from a commercial:( POV, starts immediately after Christmas, when the eggs go on sale in January and, apparently, go on RTC before Easter Sunday:D:money::T:rotfl:. (Like Christmas, it's a three-month countdown:(, if not more - the interest of retailers is to extend it as much as possible - to the actual one day, for them to use every opportunity over as long a period as possible to sell Easter (or Christmas)-themed products to you and have you not saving money.)

EDIT: Reading that blog, I think, on balance, Easter probably is Christmas 2.0 and that, whilst there's no tree:T:j:money::rotfl::rotfl:, to some extent, there is still some gift-wrapping for Easter.

What's "!!!!!!" stand for?:):D:D:eek::o:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

(No need to answer, I already know:rotfl::D:cool:.)

What kind of parents is it that you are referring to, this non-grown up adult is heavily curious about and asks?:rotfl: Just wondering. I know: sometimes I am juvenile:D.

I get these Zip, just shallow fry them in a cm or 2 of oil, work out so much cheaper, and very tasty.

Or you can microwave them Dave for around 30 seconds depending on microwave and they are still very tasty but without extra calories.

Greeting from Spain everybody, hope your easter weekend is going very well. Weather here glorious but coming back on Tuesday and not looking forward to the cold again. Am very confused about the clocks. Spain is forward one hour already and going forward again tonight one hour so now I havent the faintest what time I will get home. I am ordering c&c from sada so hope I can get there on time. I see lots of glitches been and gone, hope you all got loads. You are all smashing for sharing all the goodies.Hope not all over when I'm back. Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

No need for oil Dave, I cook them as they are, but keep an eye to check they dont burn, My old microwave took 30 secs but new takes a bit longer.
Bye the way, well done Di, a massive result for you, well deserved x
