HAPPY EASTER (I guess)

I don't really get Easter. It's one of those holidays I wouldn't miss if there was an amnesty on such things.

Rabbits don't eat eggs. They certainly don't hide eggs. Under normal circumstances, rabbits (contrary to the photographic evidence presented here) do not construct elaborate treasure-trails which lead small children to a hidden stash of eggs. If this were the case (which it is not), these eggs would not be brightly-coloured or, indeed, made of chocolate.

Easter is the most nonsensical holiday. It doesn't even have the good grace to be predictable.

Still, we get a Bank Holiday out of it and Bank Holidays are good days since they can involve picnics, road trips and pretty girls.

I don't know. I find the idea of rabbits producing and hiding brightly coloured chocolate eggs for the amusment of stupid children to be a far more plausable story than the one about the bloke on the cross springing back to life.

I thought it had something to do with religion? Anyways, since I neither work at a bank, nor have a supply of pretty girls to take on a picnic I suppose the holiday is a bit of a non‐event for me.
