We tapped out of Easter 2026 with an Easter Egg hunt. Sharp, bright sunlight and winter clothes against the biting winds.

A good time was had by all , our cheeks rosy from wind burn and sunshine.

I was protected from the wind by one of my very lucky accidental purchases at an airport. Singapore is a very hot country and I was transferring to the early summer in Sydney . However a lunchtime snack had blobbed Chilli sauce on my clean travelling t-shirt. Not wishing to hug friends with a chilli stained t-shirt in Sydney. I went to an airport shop in the hope of finding a cheap replacement. My eye for a bargain was caught by a most unexpected garment. A cotton and cashmere blend long sleeve T-shirt. Very seriously reduced.

Now I have no need for any more thermal garments but the t-shirt felt incredibly soft and aircraft can get chilly. So why wouldn’t I ? I could hug on arrival with no chilli shame.

Which brings me back to the Easter Egg hunt. It turns out that in a colder than average April exactly what I needed was a cotton and cashmere blend T-shirt. What puzzles me is why anyone would ever need such a thing in Singapore but maybe that was why it was a bargain.
