For Catholics 27th March, for Greek-Orthodox 1st May. Sorry, Mariethe, but it �s really not about East or West  . |

thank you so much dear Silvanija!!  I found a calendar of different easter dates and it said: Orient and Occident which is why I said east and west! I knew it had something to do with religion but was afraid to make a blunder!  Now I will remember! |

Thank you Douglas!! In fact we say: poisson d �Avril ! Have a nice day. 
For everyone�s information: On April fool�s day in France, we shout: Poisson d�Avril ( April fish!) when we stick a paper fish in someone�s back and he hasn�t noticed .
PS: the boy on the right says: "do you think he has noticed anything?"
What do you do in your country?What�s the tradition?
