Very Quickly, Sundays are not a part of the Lent period when counting days. This is because we remember the ressurection on sundays, therefore are not included in the fasting period of Lent. There are 6 Sundays between the 25th and the 10th making Lent finish on Saturday the 10th of April.
In the Catholic Church they stop Lent on Maundy/Holy Thursday although I'm not exactly sure as to how they do 40 days from Ash Wedenesday and the Thursday.
