That's abstinence, not fasting. I need to have words with your Ma. It's what I was taught in 'CCD' - do you have them around your way?
I was too poor to go to Catholic School - so I went to a dirty public school - anywho - the local church had night classes once as week for us poor underprivileged folk - and we were taught to abstain from meat on Fridays - all these years later I thought this was the rule.
Although I think I had a London Broil last Friday and washed it down with some bacon  Never understood the whole thing. Why is fish not "meat"? Why can you have fish and chips on Friday - - you're still eating an animal.
