the problem with an astygmatism is that it makes every circle look egg shaped, so it is easy to look at egg shapes and think thay must be circles!

:D

Ahhhh but normally your brain adapts quite quickly so that you can appreciate ovals and circles properly.

For Jay to see these eggs as footballs, it means he hasn't properly adapted to his astigmatism correction.. interesting!

Or, perhaps his brain has over adapted to reading egg shaped messages as circles?

If you ask me it looks like the 'six eggers' amongst us just have more will power than those with less - they haven't given in and eaten any of theirs yet while the 'less eggers' have tucked straight in. Lynn, it looks like you've eaten all yours. :P

She'd love it here in Germany, people have started to decorate their gardens ready for the children to go on an Easter Egg hunt on Sunday.

I really enjoyed Easter in Austria. They made a lot more of the fetival than e do in the UK. I guess that Germany is much the same as Austria. have a great time on Sunday!
