Hi,

No, I had never heard of it. But I also don't think the idea was well found/imagined; I've seen too many unfounded claims that the British must have been idiots at the time, unable to comprehend that time still ran its course.

On the other hand, you're a wise man to go a-Maying on Old May, as on New May, at least around here, the weather is not yet warm enough. I didn't know the version where the they were rolling in the dew, though. Does seem to make a difference.

Bye
