I have highlighted the quietness on Friday evenings here before. I expect it is an in joke gable tradition to de - brief and give new instructions on Fridays mirroring the gog as it were.
I have a related anecdote that tangentially fits in with this thread
Years ago I used to use Golders Green tube station as sundown was approaching one Friday I alighted at Golders Green station amongst the scurrying jews to the unmistakable skirl of the pipes. In the Lobby area was a twenty strong band playing bag pipes and beating drums and everyone of them was a joe. I inspected their kit and it was authentic military issue there were no signs and no apparent reason for these blighters to be blasting out.
Another inexplicable bizarre and surreal experience of multi racial alien Britain. I never found out why they were there or what the occasion was
