Bye bye takeaways

Mr Jones and I aren't at all religious - hence the humanist ceremony and hymn less service. But we like to pick and choose religious festivals when they suit, like most heathens really.

Yesterday Shrove Tuesday became Shrove Sunday because Mr Jones is back off to Kent on Tuesday and didn't want to miss out on the pancakes. And, because we had another look at the wedding budget and suddenly started to feel rather ill, we've decided to give up takeaways and eating out for Lent. And if we survive this most harsh of deprivations we may even extend the sacrifice until the wedding.

We're hoping that the ensuing torture will render our wallets fat and our waistlines slim - but wish us luck - denial, especially of the edible variety - does not come natural to either of us.
