50 years on and those emergency services are still working, not only on sunday but 24/7.
For the rest sunday is considered leisure time, that's why you see families in Asda or any of the other big stores that open on sunday, they are together spending a day of leisure, may be buying in, or looking for that new TV or Washing Machine or what ever. Visit places like Skipton or Settle on a sunday, it's probabaly one of their best days...........lots of visitors, families spending leisure time together.Visit any of these places during the week, and you will find them full of gentle retired folk, looking for a bargin, or just spending their well earned leisure time browsing round the shops.
