Taking up the slack

The cormorants posing on the harbour walls were hard to keep in focus with my camera in my hands being jostled about in the wind.

I made efforts to work today but lacked enthusiasm and so dillied and dallied about instead in a wandering type style.

When I spoke to Luke about Lent and how, at the moment, I felt more inclined to eat a few cream cakes than be giving anything up, he logically explained that I could think of Lent as "giving up the 'giving-up' sugar thing and revert back after".
Hmm! Food for thought (not sugar though, no, no, don't do it)
