Happy Easter all.
I spent a lot of time being educated at a Convent school in my 'yoof', though not a Catholic, I'm from a family of lapsed Methodists and CofEers. I'm not offering this titbit as an excuse or explanation, though it could be both.
Back to my Easter story. At school a priest said to me in a sombre tone "What was the last thing Jesus said to his disciples on Good Friday?"
I answered, honestly, I didn't know to which he replied "He said 'don't eat all my Easter eggs you buggers I'll be back in a few days!' " and he chuckled away.
With a priest like that and the belief the withdrawl method is a perfectly reasonable form of contraception you can't deny the Catholic Church has a sense of humour...
I got a lot from my Convent education (cue 'bad habits' pun) not least of all I think it is the reason for my fanatical love of Father Ted. Let's take a moment:
Fantastic!! Father Ted is one of my favourite things ever. I was lucky enough to stumble upon an episode I hadn't seen before last week and I almost wept for joy!

You can't beat a bir of Father Ted, and I believe that it was a certain friend of mine that introduced me to it when I stayed at her house :-)
"you will, you will, you will!"
Oh, and hope you had a Hoppy Easter too!
