Congratulations to RTE for getting the name right

Congratulations and well done to RTE. This evening on its Nine O'Clock Evening News the station referred to next Saturday as 'Holy Saturday'.

Next Saturday is 'Holy Saturday' and the following Saturday is 'Easter Saturday'.

And the new dispensation is probably due to the marketing ploy of shopping outlets.
