Were you one of those kids who took over the treasure hunt? Who found all the Easter eggs before your brothers? Who ate them in front of their faces and then spewed them up while they cried big, hungry tears for Mummy? Us too. And it's our time to shine once more.

This Saturday, the citywide / worldwide hunt that is Snap-Shot-City returns. And its treasure is more creative than crusty chocolate bunnies, or bilbys (for the patriots among us). This event aims to horde on film thousands of extraordinary sites around the world as they happen simultaneously. Instead of baskets, you need cameras. Got them? Then follow these five steps:

1. Get a team of friends together
2. Name your team BigJugz, AlleyRats, iHaveACamera or some such
3. Register here
4. On Saturday at 2pm, meet these said friends at Workshop to pick up your list of 20 interpretive photo categories (from the specific, like ‘red shoes', to the tempting, like ‘one too many')
5. Run around the city, snap stuff that suits the categories, then upload the photos before 8pm
6. Pull some triple coat Tim Tams out of your pocket and eat them in front of your friends then spew on them. Some things need not change.
