Nah, just where in the old days, you'd store food for the Winter, and as Winter passes (God knows what the weather was like back then lol, its still Winter here now!) they "celebrate" and use up all the crap in the cupboards. Such as Flour, Sugarm, Syrup and lemmons ect... All the stuff we eat on them

but what are you going to give up for lent?

I'd say chocolate but that won't last
I'd say Eu - but hell I'm addicted.
I'd say alchohol - but I'm going on the London trip at the weekend.
Guess I'll have to say cooking - lol - gonna live off takeaways !


So what are you going to give up?

Bah, i missed pancake day!! well i guess there's still time

Last year i gave up alcohol, but with the London meet-up this weekend that would just be silly

so did you get your pancake?

I tried to make vegan friendly ones for my landlord - they were a disaster so I didn't get any. Why can't he just eat dairy like most other people.

Guess I'll give up making vegan friendly pancakes
