Mum and Dad used to give  each of us a large Easter Egg each and that
was it.  I used to hide my egg in the fridge and eat a little bit over
the next week or so. One of my siblings when finish off his/her egg in
an hour and look round for our eggs, hence my hiding place.

One of our neighbours (incidentally the only survivor of his family from
the Shoah) used to hide cream eggs around his garden for his daughter to
find.  I thought that rather nice and so when I had children I used to
hide cream eggs for them to find.  I hope that my son may carry on that
as a family tradition, if he has children. He is quite traditional in
some of his behaviours, but no children yet.

Happy Easter to all.
