For those who like Brit eccentricities ...

Even this Brit didn't know this one ...

Some time this month, students from Cambridge University will be walking
from the nearby village of March, back to Cambridge.

It's called the March March March!

Meanwhile:- Llangollen’s annual Easter Bunny Hop has been cancelled amid
fears of claims

dressed as bunny rabbits
