World's biggest Easter egg
A Belgian city has entered the Guinness book of records with the biggest Easter egg ever.

The Belgian chocolate producer Guylian made the chocolate egg with at least 50.000 bars on behalf of the city of St. Niklaas.

The egg measured 8.32 metres high and beats the record of Kwazulu-Natal in South-Africa in 1996. That egg was 7.65 metres high.

Twenty-six craftsman worked altogether 525 hours to build the egg. They needed 1950 kg of chocolates.

Alderman Urbain Vercauteren of the city of St.Niklaas said the egg wasn't meant to be eaten.

He said: "After a week outside in all weather conditions, I don't think it would be very tasteful."

It's a construction of 50,000 bars of chocolate, each decorated with 4 "sea shell chocolates":

Re: Happy Easter to All !!!
Going on a slight tangent ... I was wondering what people now tend to have for their Easter Sunday lunch. Years ago, it was second only to Xmas day for the effort people went to... is that still the case or are people more relaxed these days. I was in the butchers yesterday and he said that they still sell a lot of turkeys at Easter... us... we're having leg of lamb!

Lemon marinated turkey with roasties, purple sprouting broccoli, carrots, courgettes and sweetcorn for lunch. Mind you the kitchen was murder, I'd much rather have been barbecuing.

As I've made it all myself from raw ingredients I reckon the whole lot has cost less than a trip to the dreaded McDs

I've never tried rabbit.

How do they taste? And are young rabbits better than adults?

Heh, heh, if the missus had her way that could well be true.


The real reason is on this thread: Building a small brick wall - advice please
You guys tried to talk me out of it and the missus said I was 'all-talk' so that was that and I now have a 6' x 2' x 1.5' hole in the ground.
