He later followed club involvement in the Pancake Day races by describing ancient Ripon customs including the baking of 'Wilfra tarts', apples symbolising life distributed at Ripon Cathedral on Christmas Day and the burning of 4,000 candles on the Sunday before Candlemas Day - a ceremony which was revived in 1964.
