WIN PUMBLES FARM MONEY AND A CHOCCY HORSE! The Easter Bunny has been running amok on the website and chat forum and leaving lots of Easter Eggs lying around. There are 16 to be found. Each of them has a letter stuck on them. Try and find all 16 and then rearrange the letters to make the title of a pony book by one of the Pullein-Thompson sisters. A trophy (and 1000 virtual pounds to spend on Pumbles Farm) to all who get all 16 eggs, and a Thorntons choccy horse to the first person to work out the title of the book. The eggs can be anywhere on the forum or ponymadbooklovers.co.uk website, but dont worry I will be giving clues out and if you all want to work together and let the others know where various eggs are thats fine. When you have all 16 eggs and hopefully worked out the book send me a personal message with the answer and I will award you your trophy. Plus a bonus prize of a mystery pet for your Pumble's Farm pet corner if you find where the easter bunny himself is hiding! Just to get you started here is the first egg: The competition closes on midnight Easter Sunday. NB - Apologies to overseas forum members but due to customs restrictions I can only send the choccy horse to UK members.

Great idea Claire....I've "visited" areas of your site that I hadn't been on in a while, and have been making notes on authors and books while looking for eggs and bunny!

I know what you mean you two, I am in constant danger when I am researching authors as I am always finding new books I want to read!

Hi exmoorfan, no just write down the letters you see on the eggs. You should find 16 hidden all over the forum and my website, and the letters will also form the title of a book by one of the PT sisters when they are arranged in the right order. When you have found them all and worked out the title send me a personal message with the answer.
BTW folks there is more than one easter bunny: as he is magic he can be in more than one place at once! You only have to spot him once then let me know where you have found him and I will send you a mystery pet for your pumbles farm pet corner.
Don't worry if you are struggling to find them as I will be giving clues out each day.

I found them all bar one, but have to stop searching now as we are going away tomorrow for a few days. I think I have got the book title without it. Thanks for the hunt. I enjoyed it. It's a lot cheaper than the real thing! Happy Easter everybody
