I like it Malone, I'm almost hoping for spam tomorrow to see how you'd clue Easter Saturday :-)

Thanks, Brendan. The Malone Times makes only occasional appearances now, so I might be a little rusty.

Rusty, there were two slices of spam - so I retaliated with two MT clues.

Well done, Malone.
Just imagine, spam on Good Friday.
The spammers will be heading for the flames, I think!

I am sorry to be pedantic but tomorrow is Holy Saturday. Easter Saturday is a week tomorrow.

Jigjag, I've never heard anyone refer to Easter Saturday - but I've never heard of Holy Saturday either! I Googled the former before posting my MT 2 clue. Religious authorities don't appear to like 'Easter Saturday', regarding it as inaccurate, but it remains in common usage.

No problem Jigjag, I'm a proud PU member myself :-)

I always just assumed the Saturday before Easter was Easter Saturday, but I've checked on Google and you're absolutely right - it's Holy Saturday (and me an ex altar boy as well!).

I've just polled the members of this household. Not one knew that Easter Saturday is the Saturday after Easter. It's quite logical, though - this week is "Holy Week" (as if I'm at all interested!)
