    I'm giving up. Full stop. :-)

    Nah, I think I'll probably give up alcohol completely, I've been weening myself off big binging fir the past month and think I'll up that commitment and go from a few beers once or twice a week to nothing. It will be interesting to see how it effects my socialising

    Facebook, but not for lent...for good!

    Just fed up with it and how my 'friends' keeping posting overly personal pics, information etc. on facebook. Some things are just so personal that they should not be shared on a world wide social networking site!
