Regulations flatten pancake race

Quote:
A traditional pancake race has fallen flat after it was cancelled due to health and safety regulations.
Every year, children and choristers take part in the Shrove Tuesday race in Ripon, North Yorkshire.

The event was revived 10 years ago and is usually started by the ringing of Ripon Cathedral's ancient Pancake Bell.

But this year's event has been shelved, with organisers blaming the mountain of risk assessments that must be carried out before children can take part.

Health & Safety gone mad IMO. Let the kids have their fun. They never had all these rules and regs when I was a kid and it never done me any harm
