Pancakes and no squash = a very lean lent!

My apologies for the delay in posting, i have been rather busy with exams and work, but enough of the excuses.....

As you may or may not know today is pancake day (shove Tuesday) and i have achieved what i once thought impossible, i am actually pancaked out!!! ( I do hope my mother isn't reading this as she would go spare but...) Not only did i have them with the "hyperactive spider loving one" this morning (which in itself was a mistake as an argument ensued about the correct thickness of ones pancake) but i went to a pancake party tonight! On offer was a veritable feast including thick American style blueberry ones (with real blueberries in which popped and melted in the mouth) thin crepes with an option of lemon and sugar, nutella, maple syrup, grated choc, banana and many more. I am utterly stuffed and don't think i could face another pancake for a while! All in all a rather fabulous evening with delicious food drink and a surprisingly large amount of Beatles (the band not the insect!)

As previously promised a short update on my sporting prowess. After last time i was determined to get into the spirit of all things squash and try my best to be a good sports person. Sadly i am now 7th on the GSC league table and i think this speaks for itself! I tried my hardest and was assured that i had improved since last time (which to be fair wasn't difficult!), unfortunately i hadn't banked on everyone else getting better too and so with a new member who was also better than me ( not by a huge amount i hasten to add) i dropped down a place and am still at the bottom of the table. Not only did i have the hideous embarrassment of loosing yet again but i also managed to injure myself by hitting my hand with my racket and had a huge bruise on my leg for two weeks from when i was walking out of the gym and tripped up over a rowing machine. That was three weeks ago and due to exams and other commitments i haven't played since (at least that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!) So as my title suggests, many pancakes and no squash is going to make for a very lean lent, I'm thinking dry bread and water.........or was it locusts and honey?
