    Long ago on Shrove Tuesday the people made pancakes and ate them They called that day Pancake Tuesday On St Patricks Day the people wear shamrocks. Long ago on Easter Sunday the people used to get up at three o clock and go up to the top of the hill to see the sun dancing. The people wear palm on Palm Sunday On Hallow Een night men go around from house to house singing and dancing. They get money from people.
