The Story
Buster heads off to the shop to buy some eggs. On his way home he sees what appears to be a walking Easter Egg. Turns out it's just a display egg for the local shop, but Buster has already thrown his eggs into the air with fright and they've landed on a cyclists eyes. The cyclist can't see where he's going, and rides into the egg. Buster runs after it, thinking that if he catches it, he'll get a reward, but the egg hits a wall and smashes.
The shop owner is upset that it's ruined, but he's told the insurance company will "shell" out for a new one. Buster then overhears that this eff was made of real chocolate, so he gathers the pieces and takes them home. He and his Mum stick it back together with icing sugar!
Notes
The eggs land on Daft Cousin Claude on a Very Silly Bike
The belongs to Jenghiz McCann, his great great great grandad came from Iverness
When the egg smashes he's accused of an extreme case of overacting.
Mum is squeezing a spot on her nose when Buster gets home!
