Easter Egg Advice needed :)

[psd99]

Hi there just wondering how many easter eggs everyone is going to eat or have eaten this Easter??

I have two this year One is a Mars Delight and the other is a Smarties one! I think I will make a start on them later today...........................

Last year I did not have ANY: I waited untill after Easter so that I could get them dead cheap, but then i didnt end up going to get any!

So where do u lot get your Easter Eggs from, becuase after today and tomorow there will be a sale on Easter Eggs, I think thats the best time to get LOTS and LOTS!:

and BTW Happy Easter to everone and a big big big big big weclome to BRITISH SUMMER TIME aka BST !!!!

None!

... as a NON-religious person I find it fascinating as to what the hell Eggs have to do with Easter.


Oh, and Diabetics aren’t supposed to eat chocolate.

Cadburys and Nestle made a pact Infact, I wonder why eggs are so special too - I'm sure I was taught at school when I was about 5, but I can't remember now

The Easter Bunny !!! haha

It's a bit of fun for me

I have a Galaxy Egg btw

Easter has become another thing for products, like everthing else.

If I remember I think its something to do with representing the ressurrection or 're-birth' of Jesus at Easter - people used to exchange real eggs they had decorated - now as usual its been taken over as a business opportunity, much like Christmas.

BTW, I didn't get any either......

Sorry ... but "Easter" has nothing to do with Jesus.

Under the definition for Easter in Webster's Dictionary (College Edition) one finds: "originally the name of pagan vernal festival . . . Eastre, dawn goddess." Further reading in an encyclopedia, or most books on the holidays will identify this Eastre with the pagan goddess known variously as Eostre, Ishtar, Semeramis, and Astarte. This is the same Babylonian "Queen of Heaven," whose worship is condemned in the Word of God (see Jeremiah Chapters 7 and 44).

Now, let me make one thing clear ... I AM NOT trying to induce or entice anybody in to a 'religious' war here. As I said, I'm a NON-believer and I really do find it hilarious how things get "turned around" for the sake of Commercialism.

Now I'm off to buy an Egg

I'm a non -believer and not religious either Mucks - but I can assure you Christians do celebrate Easter as the religious holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ - so for them I would say Easter probably does have something to do with Jesus

But I agree with you that to most people its just an excuse for Commercialism!

And I'm still not going to buy an Egg.....

I have this one sussed.

If a relative asks you whether you want an easter egg or money:

Scenario 1: Egg. You recieve a nice big easter egg - Aero, Yorkie...whatever. It costs about £5.37 from Tesco, probably on buy one get one half price...

Scenario 2: Cash. You get slipped a tenner in a card.

I know now what to choose.

Not that i wouldn't like an easter egg... this is just usually the way things work!!

must go against u here Sir Mucks but Easter has everything to do witn Jesus Christ.

He was Crucified on GOOD FRIDAY on the Cross of Christ
And he rose from the dead on Easter Sunday (today)

Thats what I was taught as a youngster, so yes its right these Eggs are supposed tio symbolyze his REBIRTH from the dead!

p.s i just love cadburys cream eggs
