Good morning Trilby.
I haven't seen any posts from him for a few days, I hope he's OK.

I think he found God a long time ago.
He's probably preparing himself for the rapture, he said it's coming soon possibly this autumn.

Well, we are getting the rain. I used to like that song. 
Don't you gardeners know anything? You're supposed to plant your potatoes on Good Friday.
Is that the same day, Galli?
My spuds go in on the first warm day in April regardless of the date.

It is and it isn't the same day, Foinavon. The Last Supper was a Passover meal. Jewish days traditionally start at dusk on the previous day, not at midnight. So you might say that Good Friday is Passover.
I never understood choosing a moveable feast to plant something but I remember it was all the rage in part of Scotland when I lived there.

I've heard that from Irish gardeners so perhaps it's because it's a public holiday in Catholic countries. Good Friday can come relatively early when it's too cold and wet for me. Ireland tends to be more temperate especially near the coast.
Yes, I remember the bible story now you mention it and I know that Easter has something to do with the phases of the moon so have to assume the same applies to Passover.

Easter Sunday is the first Sunday of the first full moon from the vernal equinox (March 20/21 to you).
In the early days of the Church, bishops would ask a local rabbi for the date of Passover. However, as the Church expanded through the Roman empire, a problem arose. Sometimes there weren't any rabbis around and even if you could find one or two, they might not agree on the same date.
This led to confusion. Potatoes hadn't been invented yet so it didn't involve gardeners.
