Merry Easter

Fri, 15 Apr 2022 17:00:10 GMT

You remember Easter when you were a kid? Your Mum and Dad would hand around plastic crowns of thorns. You'd take your sleeping pills and spend all of Saturday asleep while Jesus came down your chimney and gave you all his blessings. Your grandparents would die and turn into Easter presents. Life was simpler back then.
