Yorkshire on Friday 29 November 2024
Then!
Yorkshire in history:
- 29 November 1673: A verse warns Charles II against his brother James, six days after the latter’s marriage to an Italian Catholic
- 29 November 1880: A Sheffield inquest deals less with the death of James Brady than with the storage of his corpse
Proverbially:
Dean’t o’ Friday buy your ring,
O’ Friday dean’t put t’ spurrins [banns] in;
Dean’t wed o’ Friday. Think on o’ this,
Nowther blue nor green mun match her driss.
(Moorman 1916)
