1St 2Nd 4Th 23Rd 12Th Spring is here! As lockdown hopefully eases and more things open up again, there is lots to celebrate in April: April Fools’ Day, also called All Fools’ Day, got its name from the custom of playing practical 1st jokes on this day - for example, telling friends that their shoelaces are untied or sending them on so-called fools’ errands. Although the day has been observed for centuries, its origins are unknown. In the UK, jokes and tricks can be played up until noon. After midday it's considered bad luck to play a trick. Anyone who forgets and tries a joke in the afternoon becomes the 'April Fool'! Good Friday commemorates the day when Jesus Christ was betrayed and executed by 2nd the Romans in Jerusalem 2000 years ago. Some sources suggest that the day is called "good" in that it is holy, or that the phrase is a corruption of "God's Friday". Easter Day marks the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, bringing light, joy and salva- 4th tion. According to the Bible, this happened on the third day after his crucifixion. Many customs are associated with Easter, including Easter eggs and egg hunting, the Easter bunny and Easter pa- rades - see our Easter Biscuit Recipe on page 7.

He was a 23rd Roman soldier, sentenced to death for refusing to give up his Christian faith. King Edward III made him the Patron Saint of England when he formed the Order of the Garter at Windsor in 1350. Tra- dition also tells that a fierce dragon was harassing the city of Silene in Libya; the people had to choose a person by lot to give to the dragon each day, One day the king's daughter was chosen, but St George saved her by slaying the dragon. The king was so grateful that he offered a huge reward but George gave it all to the poor, everyone was so amazed that they all became Christians on the spot.

It is early Celtic interlaced work such as is not found elsewhere in England except in Northumbria.
