For a number of years now, the staff at work have donated easter eggs to give to good causes. Unfortunately, the generousity of the staff is now in inverse proportion to the demand, mainly due to elfen’ safety. Schools are no longer willing to accept them due to the worries of food allergies and being held responsible for injury or illness. There are only so many children’s homes, old people’s homes and community centres in Bradford so the donation net has to be cast wider.

As a consequence of this, I now have 59 eggs in my boot, destined for the Morley Entertainment Committee as a contribution to the Saturday Easter Bonnet Competition.

(If there are any left they will be taken round to old people’s homes).

I also noticed that they have labels on them confirming they don’t contain nuts!
