I will be bringing mini eggs for everyone. I can't bring any actual food for this, due to im already carrying alot, im carrying Easter eggs for the egg hunt, and the egg hunt stuff.
and if I bring my son I will have to carry extra stuff for him, like his sleeping bag and his sleeping mat. so you know thats why I will bring mini eggs.

Why don't you just bring lots of small tokens that people try to find instead of actual Easter eggs? That way you go out and hide tokens and then depending on how many people find they get awarded an egg?

Example, colour some lollipop sticks bright colours, or bits of red ribbon, and hide them around the place, instead of the eggs, then people redeem the tokens for eggs after its over? Would that not reduce the amount you would have to carry up with you?

not really, I have little plastic eggs which I will be hiding. but I am bringing up a bag of 6 easter eggs.  which I will have to carry up by hand.
the plastic eggs will fit in my rucksack along with the foil mini eggs that will go in them.

but like I said I will bring a couple of packets of mini eggs aswell.

if my gf comes with me, she could bring tins of beans up. but not promising anything.

Woohoo 5 more sleeps to go, I think the kids are more excited than me lol...
move on or get lost

Definitely in two minds about this.

I do have the time off - switching my ISP and alas can't work. 

But do not have my new gear just yet - I doubt my PHD bag will arrive quick enough and/or my Vango 250 will keep the warmth in (definitely didn't at Meelmore August the year before last). 
The only downside to going outdoors is having to come back inside.

I'm working this weekend but still plan to camp. Should be up on Saturday night around 6 ish. Keep me a seat by the fire and have a glass of red ready for me...
