I've now given up chocolate, crisps, fizzy drinks and my fatal weakness, biscuits, for Lent. I'll have to see if I lose any weight between now and Easter Sunday.

The only good biscuits for dieters are fig biscuits.

If you've lost weight by Easter Sunday are you going to treat yourself to a smiley - chocsmiley - chick?

I am finding the smiley - choceggs in the shops hard to resist smiley - drool but I've not had any chocolate since Christmas. I really could murder a Cadbury's Creme Egg smiley - headhurts (sorry, I'm sure you could too...)smiley - run

For at least 10 years I've given up smiley - choc for Lent, which means you enjoy the smiley - choc eggs more - although I usually go for the ones with a small egg and a mug (but recently the mugs you get are now really small). Somehow it's now added up to include crisps, fizzy drinks were introduced 2 years ago, and now biscuits. Doing well so far - but it's only 4pm on Ash Wednesday smiley - winkeye

So, what is your article idea, Icy?

Creme Eggs was the idea. That product has a fascinating history. Does anyone remember the golden egg hunt they organised in the (late 70's early 80s?) At least I *think* that was promoting creme eggs...
