Pickles Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 "Pascale" means "of Easter" or "relating to Easter"It's from a Latin root. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NormanH Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 We have the same word in English.The Paschal candle in a church for example, or the hymn "Christians, to the Paschal victim offer your thankful praises!"

woolybanana Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Chancer, they are all having a larf. It really means that a lady called Pascale is looking to go out with someone over Easter and, given the diving club context, perhaps going down to some very deep places if her tank has been filled!!
