Edit; and it lasts 6 weeks

so you have 6 weeks of no TV. Hey it's not that bad. At least you can still listen to music.

If you get bored/frustrated write some poetry.

You're the second person I've heard now who doesn't know what Lent is, Ross. It's a 40-day period where Christians give up something, in tribute I suppose to the sacrifice Moses made...I think. Tbh I could have just made that up, I'm not religious in the slightest.

But most people (even non-religious) give up something like smoking, chocolate or sex...

Isn't it from Ash Wednesday until Easter Sunday? *shrug*

no I really have, lol.

If I need to be anywhere then I have to walk. No buses, cars or trains.

Part of my aim to be healthier, greener and take in the views and nature along the river that takes me to work.


Junk food is a good one to ditch. Drink smoothies, they are so nice and fill you up loads.

So.
I got told off By a nun, for and I quote, "Not being a leader, you are in the senior school you should be leading the younger students." I stared at her thinking of how much of a twat she is... "You're not smart until you are in the navy uniform, set an example thats worth following, you act like a child, I have seen juniors with more sense"

I will NEVER take a bollocking from a nun EVER again.
