Easter just around the corner !


This is official! Easter cards are on sale in Newport. On November 18th there is a whole rack of them, Bona fide, first-rate cards now on sale!!! I thought they were last years left overs being put out at reduced prices, but no, they are all new stock!

I don't know why I am surprised, it's only five or six months ahead of the season. We don't bat an eyelid at Christmas cards in July these days, same time difference.

Hot Cross buns and mince pies are a permanent supermarket feature all years around now and it won't be long before cards will follow. What ever happened to the joy of the different seasons. Gone forever I suspect!
