Meh, I don't really give up things for lent anymore - what I like to do is think of something I haven't had in ages and say that :pac:
That said I'm watching myself and exercising so the few vices I have are relatively small - chocolate raisins, coffee and the odd take away with a few pints seeing as this is the time for me to be sociable (pre-championship)
Also, Hallo & good morning

You could, of course, give things up at anytime of the year. But as BW said, everybody's different and some people find starting difficult. What you've done is great but not everyone is able for that.grames_bond wrote: »
That's fair enough but surely you can just do that yourself anytime of the year! the 40 day limit means you have something to look forward to and more than likely will jump striaght back on your vice when lent is over. (especially as it will be easter and the eggs will be a-flowing)
I personally gave up ALOT - a few weeks before xmas, no end date in sight means you stay disciplined -Hell now I don't even have MILK in tea - let alone sugar!!
Anyway that is my (very delayed) responce!
Morning all! how are we?
My Dad, who's not really religious, gave up cigarettes for good through Lent. He gave them up every year but always broke it, and then one year, he lasted all of Lent. He's still off them over forty years later!
Tea is much nicer without milk and sugar, Grames. I never take either in my tea
Don't actually do Lent myself :pac:0 -

I haven't done Lent since I was about 12, and my parents couldn't persuade me anymore :pac:
I did give up wheat about three weeks ago though, but that had nothing to do with Lent. Going well so far anyway, although I was sorely tempted by some garlic bread last weekend
EDIT: Fair play to your dad, Hermione. My parents have never been able to give up the smokes

I went home yesterday evening - cooked a spaghetti bolognese in the oven the way I like - while that was cooking I prepared some Banana bread.
Was watching the Liverpool game after chowing down the delicious spagbol and then prceeded to run up and down to the kitchen to check if the bread was cooked as it went over the hour without being fully ready - anyway, in my haste I dropped the loaf tin on the floor and ruined my masterpiece, just as it was finished...then Liverpool lost.
I was not happy.
But now it's Friday 0
