Mr. M -- Don't you think he means, "Let's postpone Valentine's day..."? He's proposing an idea.

Actually, I thought that at first, and then changed it. I decided that only the latter part was his idea...but maybe I'm wrong.

Respected Mr. Micawber,
Can I put the sentence as follows;

Dear boys and girls,
I have an idea. We postpone the valentine's day onto the date of April first, and instead of that we will celebrate April first tomorrow.

Can we use "onto the date of" instead of until April first?

Regards,
Sri

No, 'onto' does not work, Sri.

And rcteja: your original is very confusing, logically. Why would you postpone February 14th to April 1st and then celebrate April 1st on February 14th?
