Mr Red Easter Eggs, Bonnets, & Other Customs (39) RE: Easter Eggs, Bonnets, & Other Customs 12 Apr 17

My granny did Easter eggs for us on year. Wrapped in oninion skins and boiled. It coloured them in brown swirls, though she said they used to paint them in her day.

Joe Hurley from Church & Oswoldtwistle (think Accrington, Lancs) told me about pace-egging song he used to sing. It was more like another carol singing/ penny for the guy season. Door to door.

songs.mister.red - number 47 is a recording of him singing one. "I'm a Paper Lad" & "I'm a Navvy". There is text explanation and lyrics.
