Yorkshire on Sunday 7 January 2024
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 7 January 1397: On the longest of the 42 days of his carnivalesque reign, boy-bishop John de Cave of York goes on a 200-mile begging spree
- 7 January 1974: During his trial the Pontefract architect John Poulson discusses whether entertaining (West Riding) public servants constituted corruption
Proverbially:
Sunday clipt, Sunday shorn,
Better t’ bairn had niver been born.
(Moorman 1916)
