The End of Lent (Phew!)

Reading time: < 1 minute...

For me, Lent has now ended. Those close to me will know I’ve been steering clear of my 19 fave foodstuffs, since the beginning of Lent – 22nd February. How did I do? Well, for whatever reason, it’s been harder this year to remain on-track, and I did briefly succumb a couple of times – ‘Curry’ is on the list, and I just LOVE curry!

So, as from today, the 7th, it’s back to zero-restriction, and in celebration, I have a rather large bar of chocolate (another from the ‘19’) in the fridge, with my name on it !!!

Looking ahead, each year, I grow the list by a few items – to test my resilience even further – so in 2013, it’ll be a total of 23 faves, and that’s going to take some extra mental toughness to get through.

I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!

I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
