My mother would never let us eat meat on a Good Friday. Fish was fine, but no meat. Its over 20 years since she died, but I still try and keep to that rule, more out of respect to her than for any religious observance.

Also, the parish priest would never allow the parish club to open on a Good Friday. It didn't stop the hardened drinkers, who used to meet up in the pub down the road!

I was just wondering if anybody else still sticks to those rules?
