We used to always eat fish on Fridays, my dad would call it Cod Steak Day. I used to think Cod Steak Day (Fridays) were special just like the Holy Day (Sundays). I thought it was like a law or something that on Fridays you were suppose to eat fish for dinner, just like you had to go Church and have a Sunday lunch on Sundays. Weird thing is I never thought anything of it when we stopped both. Only reason I remember this is because my Mum and sister started talking about Cod Steak Day.
