The B Team

These six intrepid eggs carried the pride and hopes of the whole house across the road an into the annual egg-chucking contest. There was an early casualty who accidentally rolled off the table in mid-decoration and had to be humanely eaten before we even got out of the house.

Much was expected of the egg of steel but it turned out that he was made of more fragile stuff. He too had to be eaten after suffering severe trauma in the strawberry patch. The others fell apart in the heat of the contest.

(And Ewan pointed out too late that the Superman S should be a red S on a yellow background ... smart arse).
