Not even thought about uncovering our BBQ yet this year. The weather just hasn't been fit for it whenever we have been at home. We are up in Scotland for Easter this year so it definitely won't be an Easter BBQ for us1

It's a lot milder start to the day today. Wish the weather would make it's mind up!
Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores today. Breakfast was toast, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is jerk pork loin with rice and vegetables.
Tonight's jobs are:- walking the dog
- load of washing

@RelievedSheff the weather has been awful, no real reprieve. So !!!!!! cold too, definitely looking forward to spring time.
You were right about not wanting to go back to a cold house after experiencing one that stays warm. The previous owner spent a lot of money on insulation and energy efficiency measures and after rolling my eyes at the time, I wouldn't go back now. It's quite the novelty still and a win win really, always a constant temperature throughout and the bills are cheaper too.1 -

We definitely couldn't go back to a colder house now, we have been utterly spoiled with this one!!1 -

Lol sometimes takes trying something new to realise you've been missing out on (house temp/ bills).
Well done on the weight loss, I second @Sun_Addict - the fads don't last. My wife has coached a couple of mums from school who went all in for all of about a couple of weeks but gave up quickly and put the weight back on. One is a complete !!!!!! but the other is alright and in fairness my Mrs is a bit extreme, so on one hand I can't blame them but on the other they still !!!!!! moan about their weight. Slow and steady wins the weight race and imo it needs to be realistic.1
