Saturday's Felixstowe Breakfast Briefing

By Derek Davis

4th Sep 2021 | Local News

Saturday Stunner

Did you know that Saturday is named after the Roman God, Saturn, the God of wealth and liberation, but also of agriculture and dissolution. In Japan, people refer to Saturday as 'soil day'. This also relates, interestingly, to the planet of Saturn, rather than the God. Japanese people refer to the planet Saturn as 'the soil star'.
