Pancake day = Shrove Tuesday.

Shrove Tuesday = day before Ash Wednesday

Shrove Tuesday = beginning of Lent

Lent = 40 days before Easter

Easter 2003 = 20th April

According to that, Shrove Tuesday (pancake day) is the 11th of March, some 3 weeks away.

Look's like the shops have it wrong. Commerciality has re-arranged the most important date in the Christian calendar.

Class.

Now if you want. Just because it's "Pancake day" doesn't mean thats the only day of the year you're allowed pancakes.
