with Dr. Adele Sykes, Fellow of the Institute of Historical Research, University of London
She will be giving an insight into the reality of the day-to-day lives of the vicars choral showing how, by the later fifteenth century they were having to undertake much more secular activities in addition to singing in the choir of the Minster. Some of which led some of them to behaviours not usually associated with priests.
Please note that Priests, Property and Pleasure explores historical themes that may include mature or sensitive subject matter. This talk may not be suitable for all audiences. Viewer discretion is advised.
/**
* TIME FIELD TWEAK — hide seconds + force "00"
*
* What it does:
* - Finds every `.form-item.time` block.
* - Sets the seconds input `.field-element[data-title="Second"]` to "00".
* - Hides the seconds UI `.field.second.two-digits` via `style.display = "none"`.
*
* When it runs:
* - On `DOMContentLoaded`.
* - On `mercury:load` (Squarespace’s AJAX/PJAX page-change event).
*
* Why:
* - We don’t need seconds; this keeps the UI cleaner and standardises submitted values.
*
* Notes:
* - Safe to remove if you later want users to pick seconds.
* - If Squarespace changes markup, update the selectors above.
* - Logs a credit message to the console (“Soundfocus Digital”).
