[Politics] Easter Wishes

[hart's shirt]

Can someone explain how it seems known that Jesus was born on 25th December but the date of his death varies every year?

It's because the movement of the Moon and Earth determine the dates rather than it being on the same calendar date.

Unlike Christmas Day on December 25th, Easter's a multi-day festival tied to the days of the week.

Good Friday changes according to Passover as the Jewish calendar is tied to solar and lunar cycles.

Any dates from March 22nd to April 25th are possible. It's a 'moveable feast'.

How many gesture eggs have your kids got this year? Just been to get Mrs Crod one and our good friends Polly and Giles whom we are seeing on Sunday.

That comes across as a rather cutting response to a very light hearted post! You see no link between buns and rabbits and how people celebrate Easter?

Guess you are not big on irony - a subtle form of joking

I did say sorry, I wondered about the link between mass produced buns, which I eat, and Hemorrhagic fever in rabbits, I wasn't trying to be clever, as if, or funny, unlikely! If it was a joke it missed me!

Have booked a nice Italian scrannnery in Liverpool on Sunday evening to celebrate.

Liver, tripe, intestines? Lovely stuff.

Liver, tripe, intestines? Lovely stuff.

I think seafood will win the day.

No need to be so pedantic! When I had my feet washed yesterday, it meant they'd been washed twice in a year!
