What happened to pancake day?

It was amazingly early this year, on the 5th February, because Easter is going to be ridiculously early. According to the Easter calculator it will be the 23rd March and in theory the earliest it could ever be is 22nd March, the latest being 25th April.

It costs the British an estimated £20 million every year in extra business administration costs to deal with Easter dates changing in accordance to an incomprehensible religious formula. You would think we could agree business Bank Holidays without having to ask the church for their latest ruling on the phases of the moon as seen from Jerusalem!

Anyway, we missed it.
