Good Friday is celebrated on the Friday before Easter and marks the day Jesus was crucified and died.

It is called Good Friday, because death was a sacrifice that Jesus made for mankind and led to his resurrection.

I reckon God could have made it less theatrical with a better ending.

When God said to him....I'm sending you down there and after 30 odd years of a shit life you'll get crucified on a wooden cross while wearing a crown made of thorns and nails through your wrists and feet.
Why didn't he just say....fuck off, you do it??

Not a Scooby for the year or even if the race is right but thought it had to be horse racing, think a horse called Good Friday has also fallen on Easter Monday too?

funny how good friday is celebrated differently in different areas of england. came up to a match a couple of seasons back and forgot how a lot of the town is shut where in my part of yorkshire and i think lancashire as well that its just a normal working day for many. think its something to do with the mills as they closed on the tuesday after instead.
