Quotes

...answer, as many of you probably know, is that this will happen every seven years on average, but that it will not happen exactly every seven years. "Leap Years occurring every fourth year mean that the calendar repeats in 28-year cycles. So e g. the calendar for 2012 will be exactly the same as that of 28 years earlier, i e. 1984, and 28 years before that, i e. 1956, and so on. Within those 28 years, each date falls on each day of the week exactly four times. The next four 1 April Sundays will be 2018, 2029, 2035 and 2040." So I've got a bit of time to devise my next April Fool puzzle. I'd rather not think beyond that!
