Continuing preparations for the Twelfth Night gathering.
Although I look forward with eager anticipation to greeting our guests, I am
thankful that they will not arrive until tomorrow!
I had heard that the celebrations
of Catholic families take place tonight, and not on the 6th (as is the
custom of all whom I know – whether rich, poor, or of moderate income), but saw
no signs of such festivities in our town today or this evening. I wonder
whether England celebrated on the 5th prior to the Reformation or Commonwealth
period?
