What happened to 'whitsuntide'- it seems to have dissapeared- no one buys 'whitsuntide clothes' anymore, and my daughter in law had never heard of that.And I'm not that old either?

My son was born on Whitsunday 39 years ago, so I’ve heard of it!

Its the the 7th Sunday after Easter, or Pentecost.

It isn't until June.

Sorry, that was very negative. It's on Sunday 5th June this year.

We'll be celebrating the Jubilee on that day this year.
