Well, I’ve given both these monsters up for the New Year, once existing supplies (of choc) have run out. All laugh derisively, as if there’s some doubt I’ll stay the course. We’ll see. Liv gave me two kilo bars of CDM for Christmas, which I’ve just finished. If, as I intend, they were my last for a while, at least they will provide a good memory.

Concerning the Lakes: Easter’s available, from 3rd April, I think, as is May, either 1st or 8th, I’m not sure which.
