I know that I am going to get slated by the more religious members of our blogging community, and probably quire rightly so.
But, what a waste of a public holiday this Easter in the middle of winter really is. Weather is horrible and always was likely to be. You can't do anything.
It is costing places such as Skegness 100,000's of pounds because it should be a good earner for the town but not if it is in the middle of winter. I am sure there are good religious reasons for having the now but for a purely secular viewpoint they should be put into a secondary category of priority.
We could still have had Easter day tomorrow but could have carried the bank holiday over to the end of April which is when the huge majority of schools in this area are having their breaks.
Tin hat and flak jacket on but that is how I feel.
