    3. Tonight is the night when your ancestors went Wassailing...dancing and singing around the apple orchards and placing toast at the foot of the trees in the hopes of having a good harvest for the cider apples. I was amused while I was in the US to see Cider for sale but on checking I realised this was not what we call Cider in England - it is non-alcoholic:-) That would not have suited our ancestors or those of us who enjoy a glass or two of real Cider.
