That no longer happens, but the Archdruid of Canterbury does give his wife or husband a box of roses chocolates in memory of the former custom.Bibaculushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11531072045134642478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795284845836270713.post-58788365464527535342015-12-14T06:43:51.604+00:002015-12-14T06:43:51.604+00:00Whereas I normally get pink clothes when I get the...Whereas I normally get pink clothes when I get the colours mixed up in the wash.Archdruid Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11849759985107161674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795284845836270713.post-8617115386877138672015-12-13T21:06:28.244+00:002015-12-13T21:06:28.244+00:00They were in the wash.
