A Wibsite special Easter feature

Eggs, we've all seen them! Roundish and ovalish and sphericalish. But with such a dizzying array of eggs available to purchase at this time of year how do you go about picking the right egg for you? Wibsite contributor and blogger Neil faced this eggs-traordinarily hard choice recently, he demonstrates how he did it in this illustrated picture special.

Six eggs, one egg box, this in itself poses deep questions, but Neil has no time for philosophy, he has an egg to choose!

Right away Neil has spotted an egg that looks just a little suspect, the garish yellow and blue wrapping has put him off for a start.

“No way”, Neil says to himself as he moves it away to a safe distance. This is an ex-egg.

The next egg shows itself to be more favourable, and as he holds it up to the light he can tell it will need further consideration.

This cheeky little egg is certainly giving Neil cause for laughter, but eventually he decides this egg as almost too good to be true.

Just two eggs in the running now, time for laughter is over, serious choices need to be made.
