[Loch-Ruadh] Opentyde

[Madelina de Lindesay]

>From my "forgotten English" page a day calendar:

Opentyde - "in medieval times, a period for wedding that continued through Ash Wednesday."

And from the internet:

"Opentyde - Marriages were commonly performed between the Feast of the Epiphany through Ash Wednesday", found at:  http://www.rencentral.com/celebrations/jan2001cal.shtml

interesting....
