Thanks Rob. Same back at ya and to everyone. Gonna have a quiet weekend, maybe just some Blues and R & R. The wife is going to pick up 7 more chicks(chickens) to add to the flock today and sometime in the next 2 months I'll be making the coop bigger. Until then they'll be in a pen in the basement. None of them are chocolate though!

@ RTH
BTW the 'religious' part of Easter starts Thursday evening.....

That explains why I had no idea why Rob was wishing us a happy Easter so early. I was raised as a quasi-athiest. Although I dont hold those (lack of) beliefs these days, I'll admit that I dont know much about rites and rituals. I'll probably have a steak for dinner.

In more ways than one. I didnt even realize this was Easter weekend until yesterday. [unsure]

I could change my ideas about bunnies after that pic?

Easter...not religious.

Chocolate...love it but being diabetic am trying valiantly to resist.

Mrs Dig makes killer hot cross buns which eclipse the bought ones by a factor of 10 at least...yum!

I'm told we are eating fish today which makes me want to have a pie or a bit of steak. It's not that I don't like fish, I love it, but if someone tells me I have to do something, then I'm likely to do the opposite!

Part I like is that we usually have family visits, as we do this time.

Part I don't like is the insane busyness of this area which is always weighed down by city folk on holidays. I usually hibernate until they have all gone home. I don't blame them for wanting to get away from the city, I would too but I reckon if you looked at Oz from space at the moment there would be a distinct tilt towards the SE with the weight of all the extra people!!

Am I becoming anti-social?

I agree with you Frank. BUT I have to work on Easter from 1:00PM to 9:00PM. Had to cancel invites for Ham and Potatoes and the rest of the good stuff. Enjoy everyone!
