A Yorkshire Year: Weds 19 November (*** NB date!)

Yorkshire folklore, traditions, customs... Catherine Warr takes a deep dive into the quirks and quiddities of our curious old county. Her entertaining recent book on the subject covers all the Ridings (remember them?) and every day of the year. It promises to be a lively evening!

A Yorkshire Year is the latest talk in the Richmond Civic Society programme. It's at 19:30 on 19 November, in Richmond Methodist Church. Visitors are very welcome: tickets are £10 at the door.

Fruitcake and cheese - Yuck, or Yum? Most Yorkshire people would find the idea quite normal - it's  tradition. A slice of Bettys Christmas cake, and a wodge of Wensleydale... Definitely Yum! (And here's another tradition: Bettys is always printed without an apostrophe. Tradition, eh..?)

***The date of this talk has changed since being published in the print edition of Richmond What's On.***)
