Ridiculous

I KNOW Easter falls a little earlier than usual this year but what I saw yesterday takes the biscuit.

Twelfth Night fell over the weekend and this, as we all know, is traditionally the time to take down the festive decorations and get the gaff looking normal again. It's a job I will get around to later, after I've got over the shock of seeing shelf upon shelf full of ..... wait for it .... EASTER EGGS!

We'd hardly got the sun creams off the shelves before the gruesome Halloween-ware came out. Long before this event was celebrated, shelf space was being shared with Christmas stuff. Then as soon as the last hooter for New Year has been blown at the strike of midnight ... whack .... we're thrown into chocolate bunny land.

I blatantly refuse to buy Easter eggs at this time of year regardless of what offers the stores tempt me with. I need time to recover from one event to the next and expect a whole load of others do too.

Whatever next .....?
