Lucky Easter Bunny

Can't believe it! This blog says I have made 53 posts. About time I got a life then! Talking of life...



It's Easter again and doesn't it seem to go on a bit more than it used to? It seems to me that a lot more is made of Christmas and Easter than ever before. Too tired and warm to get my arm out of bed to turn the radio off, I listened in and out of the Easter service this morning. Must have been a Holy Roman Catholic church I should think, what with all the "responses", bell tinkling and a more-loony-than-usual sermon.




A very-important priest repeated over and over again the same message; that "Jesus died to give us life", "save us from our sins", "so that we may be forgiven our sins". Jesus was born of the virgin Mary, he was the son of God, he died on the cross, was buried and then got up, walked about a bit, then rose up into Heaven; oh yeah? OK for medieval peasants I suppose...




From the way the preacher spoke I assume that his congregation all had learning difficulties.




As it's Easter there is roast chicken for lunch today. I shall think myself a child again and enjoy it as a rare and expensive treat, with a grown-up glass of wine as well of course.




Pip,pip.
