Lazy Easter

When you read this, Easter is nearly over. However, I still want to wish you all a nice Easter Monday. I hope you had nice weather, unlike me. It was cold and wet here. Yes, we had a few sunny spells, but it wasn't the weather for a lovely Easter walk. It was the weather to snuggle up with a good book, or, in my case, a good audio book. I indulged in all the chocolate I had got, so it's all gone now. Although, it's not completely gone, it manifests itself in my 'below-the-belt' area. Had somebody told me ten years ago that this would happen, I'd have laughed at them. But no more. I even overheard my husband tell his mum she shouldn't give me any chocolate as I was getting too fat. Now I know he wasn't 100% serious, but probably about 80% serious, which is reason to ponder. Maybe I should start doing some sport again, Fastcartoonist style. You'll see what I mean in his cartoon below. There's a lot more for you to indulge in – and it won't even make you fat, so please enjoy this issue of the Post.
