Last week I saw that so-called Hot Cross buns at my local supermarket (Metro) are now being made and sold without any (pastry) cross on top of each. It may be a bit of a war on Easter (or politically correct excuse to attempt to make more profits, by trying to sell buns to more people, of other religions) has begun, like the war on Christmas, by many retailers (i.e. no Merry Christmas greetings etc., just 'Happy Holidays'). Knowing that this country was founded on Judaeo-Christian principles and by people who obeyed such, I was rather annoyed, anyway.

P.S.: a now controversial old 'holiday song', of late:
