awiiya Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I think you are off a year? Easter last year was on April 4th (in the Catholic church and I believe most others), this year it is on the 24th. Awi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had my wife convinced it was Easter this weekend too. So.. Double Candy for us this year! Woo. /facepalm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root Admin Chewett Posted April 5, 2011 Root Admin Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Its rather ironic how you mention "calculating it yourself" and then get the date wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yep. I'll take the rap for it. I did actually calculate things using a calendar I grabbed, and ..er... as stated above, was off by a year. Life's been rather hectic lately with layoffs and shifting schedules lately. Oops! Honest mistake. I should have shown my work, for at least partial credit. Please close, lock and totally obliterate this thread if you so wish. Sheesh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
