Saw something there today saying there was a cold snap on the way around easter

is Easter at the earliest it can be this year lads?
I prefer late easter tbh…weather usually better and its the may Bank Holiday before you know it

Is it waiting for restrictions to be loosened before it comes?

In theory it can be week after Paddy’s Day

Late March to late April is the range. 4th April this year so a tad early.

Palm Sunday and St.Patrick’s Day were the one day in 1940.

My birthday is April 3rd, and I think it coincided three times with my birthday as a child (1st, 6th and 12th birthdays). Hasn’t fallen on it since, and isn’t scheduled to happen again until my 85th birthday.

Go in, a man of your age needs to take it handy.
Plug in the air-fryer, 2 hash browns, a few sausages and white pudding. You’ll be grand.

Looking like potentially very strong winds Wednesday night into Thursday.
