IOnce again I can thank the Fortean Times Breaking News section for this strange story.
According to the York Press Lawrence Edmonds is on a quest to lick every cathedral in the country . In a pub bet the 26-year-old from York was challenged by his friend Adam to complete the task in two years, or otherwise run naked round York Minster.
If he succeeds in licking every Anglican cathedral in the UK, his friend must do the streak instead.
Edmonds started his quest at Norwich Cathedral, but says Lichfield Cathedral in the Midlands tasted best, with the reddened sandstone beautifully warm on the tongue, while Wakefield tasted revolting.
The English Heritage worker said a visit to York Minster had completed
his task in England, but he still had another 20 in Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland to visit.
I wonder what conversation brought aout the bet. I would love to have been a fly on the wall at that pub session!
