Jersey Heritage Podcast

Language and links to the calendar year of festivals, celebrations and traditions


Listen Later

How does Jersey's native language,  Jèrriais,  link to the Island's festivals, celebrations and traditions.  Starting in January  in the depths of winter we take a look at the calendar year from old Christmas day, to 'quarter days' such as Michalmas.   Mel and Perry are joined once more by Geraint Jennings, Jèrriais Promotions Officer and take a tour around the year and find out why St Brelade parishioners are 'caterpillars' and people from St Helier had the runs!
