Stilton: Tomorrow we have Shrove Tuesday followed by Ash Wednesday (where does all this crap come from?)
On Shrove Tuesday we have pancakes but I don't know about Ash Wednesday. A day for the smokers?
adaliabooks: Mmmm, pancakes. On Shrove Tuesday we have pancakes but I don't know about Ash Wednesday. A day for the smokers?
I don't know (or care, to be honest) about the religious reasons but I know in Ireland everyone used to get ash put on their foreheads..
Everyone with ashy foreheads sounds interesting, sort of....maybe..... If there was some kind of religious reason to stick a carrot in your ear and throw custard at everyone who looks like Dick Van Dyke I expect there are people who would do it.
God works in mysterious ways....
