10th Mother’s Day 
Mothering Sunday was originally a time when people returned to the church, in which they attended when they were children. This meant that families were reunited as adults returned to the towns and villages where they grew up. In time, it became customary for young people, who were working as servants, to be given a holiday on Mothering Sunday. They could use this day to visit their own mother and take a gift of food or clothing to her. Today people continue to visit their mother and take gifts. Celebrate Mother’s Day at these restaurants, We recommend these local florists Southwark

17th St Patrick’s Day                               
St Patrick is one of the patron saints of Ireland. He is said to have died on March 17 in or around the year 493. He grew up in Roman Britain, but was captured by Irish raiders and taken to Ireland as a slave when he was a young adult. After some years he returned to his family and entered the church, like his father and grandfather before him. He later returned to Ireland as a missionary and worked in the north and west of the country. Luke Wadding, a Franciscan scholar born in 1588, was influential in ensuring that the anniversary of St Patrick's death became a feast day in the Catholic Church. Celebrate St Patrick’s Day and all things Irish at these Bars & Pubs
