Plus ca Change...

Now because attitudes have changed completely, young people of the present time, who are without teachers, enjoy staying up until after midnight, and sleeping until noon; they delight in ball games and dice, in dreadful oaths, and in other behaviour which is neither good for them nor right for them.


- Thomas Walsingham's St Alban's Chronicle, 1392 AD
