Pancake day. Will you?

Flippin' heck - Pancake Day at risk of dying out, says poll: "The poll shows more than two-thirds said they would either ignore the tradition or make only a half-hearted effort to mark the occasion.
Shrove Tuesday represents the feast day before the start of Lent on Ash Wednesday, and is traditionally the last opportunity to use eggs and fats before the 40-day Lenten fast leading to Easter.
A glimmer of hope involves young people. The poll claims that the age group most likely to mark Pancake Day enthusiastically is 18 to 24 year olds. The group most likely to ignore the tradition, surprisingly, is the over 55s."

I'll be making really thin ones, with currents, sugar and lashings of lemon juice—just like my mam makes. It's funny, that many people aren't making pancakes any more. Because I was going to do a theme. After all, it's on my list of high days and holidays.
Looks like St David's Day is the next one. Did you see us win at Twickers—first time in 20 years! Man, I was jumping and jumping and jumping!
It's the politicians that decide

BBC: School closures in Cumbria: The uphill battle against closure: "You get a group of teenagers together from this area and they don't know each other because they're all scattered around in different schools.
It's had a huge impact. We used to have harvest festivals in the church. The kids would perform in church.
They'd run errands for the older folk. Now that kind of thing doesn't happen any more."
