Happy Smoggy Easter

How quickly the year goes by the older you get, it's already Easter folks!
So what does Easter mean to everyone?
Is it all about the Lindt chocolate bunnies? Hoping that you get enough to form a bunny army?



For Christians, Easter is the most important festival in the Christian calendar. It celebrates the resurrection from the dead of Jesus, three days after he was executed. The Easter story is at the heart of Christianity.

Or is Easter now all about smog? Yes smog, it's on the lips of everyone, quite literally! I turn on the tele and the news is banging on about smog in London & Manchester.
You just can't win, firstly they say people need to go on holiday to increase local economy in sea side resorts...then they're blaming it on travelling for the increase in pollution causing smog.
Stay inside! Is the warning from the news to old people & asthma sufferers, then two minutes later they're saying "look at the lovely weather, go out and enjoy the sun"
Old people had it far worse in their youth, factories & mills pouring out black smoke. Yet they just got on with it, none of this softy nonsense.



So get out of your bubble, get outside in the smoggy sun, forget how bad chocolate is for you and eat loads of it....I will.
