Egss

Every weekday morning, I attempt to come out of my semi-comatose state buy popping the TV on and listening to BBC Breakfast. Not much really stuns me nowadays - the government and its associated quangos make daft decisions all the time, and I sit there thinking about what I would do if I were running the show.

I was flabbergasted at a recent decision concerning eggs...

The British Egg Industry Council celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the Lion Mark (showing that hens have been immunised against salmonella) so they wanted to do something special. What I hear you ask? Recycle the old "Go to work on an Egg" adverts.

Oh dear - it all went down the pan pretty quickly - one of the government quangos have gone up in arms over this as the Broadcast Advertising Clearance Centre (BACC) has banned them citing that "they fail to promote a varied and balanced diet".

Well - what a load of tosh I say - I urge you to sign the Egg industry's petition to get this fantastic piece of Television history back on our screens!!!
