"So pubs open good Fri does it make any difference to you
Also anyone stick to no meat
Personally I prefer a few at home and if I remember I'll try no meat  "
No difference for me as: I dont drink alcohol and I dont eat meat at all. I'm vegan and as usual on Friday I'll be fasting. Only water, herbal teas and veggie smoothie on breakfast.  |

Its gonna be 20C!
I'm BBQ'ing some prime beefburgers I made and drinking some quality wheat beer on the patio, looking up towards the sky and saying Happy Easter God
You do know fish on Friday was started by the Catholic church because they owned a fishing fleet and sales were low? Just a little something you might want to know |

No difference at all, and as for eating meat, I haven't observed in years. Religion was something I inherited, not a true belief. But if I'm spending time with observant family members or friends, I'll abstain out of respect for their traditions. Otherwise it's just like any other day  |

Will be out for a few drinks and a bite to eat later at a burger joint so will be eating meat too.
Don't see why because some mythical character "died" that it should have any impact on what I consume.

"Out of respect...
No alcohol & no meat tomorrow
...meets are a different story though!
But it would have to be a meet with no “meat” then surely "
-------------------
I know, I know...
& therein lies the dilemma 
Could always wait until after 12 O'Clock |

There is pretty much universal agreement that Jesus existed. Although the rest of it you can take with a pinch of salt
Usual for me. Working but after changing jobs it will be from home. Can catch up on billions and sit with the laptop on my knee |

Everyone one is happy to take Easter, Christmas holidays, paddys off but still slag off religion. I'm not that religious but these all created from the church. Similar to the schools that want religion gone from schools but not happy that no longer be a nativity play etc. |

I'd rather be working at Christmas and take time of when it suited me,who wants to be at home on shitty dark days? As for Paddy's day,it's fine if it falls at a weekend,but bank holidays in the middle of the week are feck all use to anyone,and a logistical nightmare for some businesses. I'd be happy to see the end of bank/public holidays and everyone just get the days added to annual leave to take when they wish. |

Most “holidays” actually tie in with the big pagan festivals. It was just easier to do it that way to get people to change to Christianity |

Don't think it was yo protect fishing that fasting was introduced. According to Christian teaching, Jesus died on a Friday, and his death redeemed a sinful world. People have written of fasting on Friday to commemorate this sacrifice as early as the first century.
Technically, it's the flesh of warmblooded animals that's off limits — an animal "that, in a sense, sacrificed its life for us.
Fish are coldblooded, so they're considered fair game.
