Controversy continues regarding the choice of Sunday venue for the local St Davids & District Ploughing Match. This up until 1952 was an area of 99% Sunday observance in agriculture.
Even more challenging was the committee's choice of front piece for their brochure - The Cathedral with a team of horses ploughing a paddock owned by the Cathedral -
I bet that was not allowed on a Sunday.
In view of social and cultural history it would be fascinating to hear the take on this subject from the new Bishop of St Davids - the former Dean the Rt Rev Wyn Evans - locally rejoined as one of the more enlightened and broad minded clerics in the city of St Davids.
Here is the Bishop parked outside some welsh cottages in St Davids.
He is reputedly very supportive of the flourishing commercial activity - shops and restaurant all open 7 days a week at the Cathedral.
Better the day better the deed.
