Englishman, Frenchman and Irishman – Best clean joke

An Englishman, a Frenchman and an Irishman were in a pub talking about their children.

‘My son was born on St George’s Day, ‘remarked the Englishman, ‘So we obviously decided to call him George.’

‘That’s a real coincidence’, observed the Frenchman’, My daughter was born on Valentine’s Day, so we decided to call her Valentine.’

‘That’s really incredible’, drawled the Irishman, ‘Exactly the same thing happened with my son Pancake.’

Etymology of the Word Shrove

Shrove Tuesday - Pancake day

In modern English, the word ‘Shrove’ has no meaning outside of pancake or Shrove Tuesday.  Academics can trace shrove to the past tense of the verb shrive, which itself means absolution.  This derivation helps to cement the meaning of eating up luxury food before the penance of fasting during Lent.

If you bring to mind other old words such as Yuletide (Christmas) and Eastertide, then it will be no surprise that there are lesser known ‘-tides’,Allhallowtide (Halloween), Whitsontide (Whitson) and Shrovetide.  My point is that Shrove Tuesday is the last day of Shrovetide.
