Giving things up for lent

[Miss Demeanour]

So do we have any partakers??????

I have been coerced into giving up bread for 40 days ......in the name of charity of course.

But I will make my aplogies now - I love the stuff - and so will be going through a painful withdrawal in the next few days and will be ratty as hell. I am sure you will notice the difference

RC?

I had enough of this when I was a kid.

Good heavens no ---- I am not a religious person

Though I may start having hallucinations of all sorts of divine creatures once the carb counter gets low

It begs the question, WHY?

You get this drummed into you as being a good thing to do.
Why is self-denial a good thing?

Mrs Nick always gives up wine for lent. Not alcohol, just wine

Because I have no willpower - if I didn't have a 'reason' for doing this i.e a charity benefiting-  I would give at the 1st mealtime.
Far better than attempting to run a Marathon or any other similar ordeal.

Will you then revert back after Lent?

Have a binge.

Bloody right - I will become a complete dough ball

So you're not worried about becoming a better person?

Do I need to be 

I am who I am - flaws an all - don't particularly want to change anything in that respect.

[Nick]

You admit to having flaws?

Have a clap!

Well said.

I know it's too late to change my ways anyway.

By a breadmaker and make your own at home... nobody will know...

You can make bread easily by hand. It cleans the fingernails wonderfully
