So, with little food left, the Church deemed that people should fast and that the amount of meat eaten should be as little as possible.

I have little doubt that you right Bill, but what a really nice way of putting it. Nice one.

Re: What you giving up?
I seem to remember that pancake day was for using up any flour and eggs. After this day we weren't allowed any cakes biscuits yorkshire puddings e.t.c.
But as I no longer go to church I'm not giving anything up, I just hope my Nan isn't turning in her grave.
