So this year I have decided on top of alcohol, I am quitting fast-food, fizzy drinks, crisps, buns and buscuits, sweets, chocolate and full cream milk. The day after Lent ends is my birthday, so I think after abstaining for 46 days, all of the above will taste 10 times better than usual My mate wanted to bet me £200 that I couldn't quit s*x for all of Lent, and I wanted to bet that he couldn't either, and after careful contemplation, neither of us accepted Is anyone else quitting anything for Lent? ...
