Easter's overlapping Songkran this year. A first, in my experience.
Ok what is "Songkran" ?
Right. Go outside and expect someone to soak you with a bucket of iced water within minutes. On the upside, he'll probably offer you a whiskey too.
The weather does that often enough, less the wiskey

That's rather more water than I take in my whisky.

According to wikipedia (so it must be true)
Songkran occurs at the same time as that given by Bede for festivals of Eostre [In a tract explaining how the timing of Pagan Eostre is subtly different from the Christian Easter]
Which I think justifies me fielding Thai elephants in my Anglo-Saxon armies through the exchange program.
perhaps one day our illustrious leader will produce some eastern enemies for those mongols.
