SHROVE TUESDAY  Shrove Tuesday, or Pancake Day, is the traditional feast day before the start of Lent on Ash  Wednesday. Lent – the 40 days leading up to Easter – was traditionally a time of fasting and  on  Shrove  Tuesday,  Anglo-Saxon  Christians  went  to  confession  and  were  “shriven”  (absolved from their sins). A bell would be rung to call people to confession. This came to  be called the “Pancake Bell” and is still rung today.  Shrove Tuesday  always  falls  47 days  before Easter Sunday, so the date varies from  year to  year and falls between February 3 and March 9.  Shrove Tuesday was  the last  opportunity to  use  up eggs  and  fats  before  embarking  on the  Lenten fast and pancakes are the perfect way of using up these ingredients.  In  the  UK,  pancake  races  form  an  important  part  of  the  Shrove  Tuesday  celebrations  –  an  opportunity  for  large  numbers  of  people,  often  in  fancy  dress,  to  race  down  streets  tossing  pancakes. The object of the race is to get to the finishing line first, carrying a frying pan with  a cooked pancake in it and flipping the pancake as you run.  The  most  famous  pancake  race  takes  place  at  Olney  in  Buckinghamshire.  According  to  tradition, in 1445 a woman of Olney heard the shriving bell while she was making pancakes  and ran to the church in her apron, still clutching her frying pan. The Olney pancake race is  now  world  famous.  Competitors  have  to  be  local  housewives  and  they  must  wear  an  apron  and a hat or scarf. Each contestant has a frying pan containing a hot pancake. She must toss it  three times during the race. The first woman to complete the course and arrive at the church,  serve her pancake to the bellringer and be kissed by him, is the winner.  At  Westminster  School  in  London,  the  annual  Pancake  Grease  is  held.  A  verger  from  Westminster  Abbey  leads  a  procession  of  boys  into  the  playground  where  the  school  cook  tosses a huge pancake over a five-metre high bar. The boys then race to grab a portion of the  pancake and the one who ends up with the largest piece receives a cash bonus from the Dean.  In  Scarborough,  Yorkshire,  on  Shrove  Tuesday,  everyone  assembles  on  the  promenade  to  skip.  Long  ropes  are  stretched  across  the  road  and  there  maybe  be  ten  or  more  people  skipping  on  one  rope.  The  origins  of  this  custom  is  not  known  but  skipping  was  once  a 


magical  game,  associated  with  the  sowing  and  spouting  of  seeds  which  may  have  been  played on barrows (burial mounds) during the Middle Ages.  Many  towns  throughout  England  used  to  hold  traditional  Shrove  Tuesday  football  („Mob  Football‟) games dating back as far as the 12th century. The practice mostly died out with the  passing of the 1835 Highways Act which banned the playing of football on public highways,  but  a number of towns have managed to  maintain the tradition to  the present  day including  Alnwick in Northumberland, Ashbourne in Derbyshire (called the Royal Shrovetide Football  Match), Atherstone in Warwickshire, Sedgefield (called the Ball Game) in County Durham,  and St Columb Major (called Hurling the Silver Ball) in Cornwall.

It dates back to 1445 and it is believed all began with a townswoman late for the Shriving service at the Olney parish church. She heard the church bells ring out for the service and she fled her house fearful of being late. She ran the distance down the High Street to make it to the parish church - still clutching her frying pan and wearing an apron.
