We're going on an egg hunt!

On the last weekend of The Big Egg Hunt we took the kids up to hunt the eggs for the last time - slightly easier on the feet this time as they were in closer proximity!!!

We bought the I-SPY-EGGS book and set to work...

it was a bit like egg bingo (I was told!)

I wonder who's egg this is????

It was such an amazing sp'egg'tacle!

We loved Rebecca Sutherlands wOL in the Pop up shop

Rob Ryan's The Bird's Promise egg - we heart Rob Ryan!

Bit worried that Pandora might pop out to say hello! :0

Blooming lovely - Pretty Polly!

There were so many amazing eggs - once we got up close you could 
really see the amount of hard work and love that had gone into them all!

My Ostrich eggs had all sold out but you could still get one of these in the shop...

...and there WAS Wally!

ticking off the last few eggs...

...and then we said our final goodbyes to the Alpha Egg :(

Bye bye! xxxx

An Eggcellent evening in Covent Garden

Then my sister and I had a little wander through the eggs in the darkness...

It was really magical...

Lurking between the eggs!

An Eggcellent Evening!

All eggs in one basket...well Covent Garden actually!

All the eggs have now been moved into and around Covent Garden for the last Easter week of the Egg Hunt. On Wednesday 4th April I was invited down to Covent Garden for a preview night of some of the eggs. 

There was music and singing from some fabulous 1940's Gals and much welcomed hot pie and mash - it was soooo cold but we soon got warmed up!

 We got to wear these beautiful corsages provided by Robbie Honey

and meet some of the other artists taking part - like the lovely George Butler who illustrated this beautiful egg!

It was also quite humbling standing close to my egg, listening to peoples comments and watching them take photos...

I also met the lovely Emily who had completed the whole hunt of 210 eggs - an amazing achievement - and I was asked for my first ever autograph!!!

Rachel Waldron and Mark Shand said a few words and then we were entertained by Drummond Money-Coutts (DMC) the magician with amazing slight of hand!

It was in his wallet all the time!!!
