Transferral of holy days

A big time for Holy Days coming up. Most importantly, Lammas on 1 August. One of the Great Beaker Days. It has the great advantage that it's traditional, but nobody really knows what it's for. So we can argue it's some kind of fertility festival. That's always the best line to take when you don't know what something's for. But first there's New Moon on 30 July. St Martha, patron saint of fretting, on the 29th of course. And 2 August is the date when we remember the death of Don Estelle, God bless him.

I'm hoping the weather's getting a bit better now. And we're all hoping we can spend some more time out in the gardens. So I'm moving all the feast days for the whole of August to Sunday night. It'll be a great Sunday evening, and then we can take it easy all month.
