Then there's more stuff after Easter. The feast of something or other, then that runs another month. I forgot all that stuff but it was ridiculous

Pentecost - 50 days.

I was about to say Whitsun (only know it because we get a holiday here), but apparently that's the same as Pentecost. Though that does lead into another 7 days of whitsuntide

That is primarily a British colloquialism - recognized as another term for Pentecost
