Lyn - ahem, hint? I like those enormous ones you used to see in Woolworth's, decorated with sugar flowers !

I think they used to sell raffle tickets for it and the procedes went to a children's home.

I'll have to see if I can remember to bring my books for the raffle this year instead of forgetting and having to stop off at Smiths on the way and buy replacements.

My mother won a giant Easter Egg once but I cannot remember the charity. This photograph was taken in April 1963. I think it took us days and days to consume it all but perhaps we gave some away. Dave.

No, no, no, no, no Dave. That won't do - not big enough!!! If we had one of those in our house they'd be like pigs at the trough - and as for giving any away, not likely!

Great photo. Viv.
 
farmer dave, I remember seeing one of those every Easter but I can't for the life of me remember where it was. Only got to look at it through the window though.
 
thank you eric i am quite sure that it will be very useful for someone...especially me:D
