A bag of caramel eggs, box of mikado

10 - whlml pitta (B) bacon, fry lite egg
1 - Punnet of purple grapes
3 - whlml pitta (B) SW melting burgers(A) cheddar done to perfection on BBQ, with lettuce and bacon

After an hour in traffic on the a55 gave in and got KFC for breakfast

No more beer / KFC / cheesecake / biscuits (unless they say weight watchers on them!)
Definitely banned from beer as soon as alcohol arrived I not only got the rebellious munches, I also decided to have a smoke!
