Are you abstaining from meat today?? If so what are you going for? I don't eat enough fish, but I'm going out for lunch and think I will go for some grilled sole (rather than battered cod and chips), and have got everything ready for a Red Goan King Prawn curry tonight.  |

I'm not particularly religious, and maybe it is because it was a big tradition growing up, but I always avoid meat on Good Friday. My local fish and chip shop owner told me this week it is still his biggest day of the year by a country mile. |

"Every Friday is fishy friday for me.
But today I'm fasting and abstaining.
Not eating all day?"
I'll maybe have a light dinner at about 6ish if I start flagging. Some soup or something. |

"not sure..

Would you throw rocks at his goat on other Friday's ? If so can I come round next Friday it sounds like jolly good fun. |

I am so going to try and find the film now and settle down to watch this afternoon seeing as it is raining and freezing. Blasphemous and irreverent, but funny as f*&k! |

It's sort of our family film. When the arguments start as to what film to watch there's only two films we all can agree on. This one and Jaws. |

"I didn't even know it was good friday
didnt all the easter eggs and the 2 bank holidays kind of give it away?  "
Bank holidays don't effect either of us so don't pay any attention to them
And the Easter eggs come out a few weeks after Christmas so can't say they give it away |

"Really silly question, but ain't fish also a form of meat, after all it is still the flesh of an animal?"
I suspect it is more to do with Jesus being a fisherman. |

Yes always been tradition in my family to have hot cross buns this morning and no meat on Good Friday. I had Thai prawn fishcakes with chilli sauce and salad for lunch.
My Mum would never do washing today either. |

I'm Tudor times you could eat beaver (stop sniggering at the back) and otter as they were seen as a fishy type thing. |

Due to a thread yesterday, I have purchased myself a rather delicious looking Sea Bass which I shall grill and serve with new potatoes and asparagus complimented with a side salad and crusty bread.
God I'm hungry now, best get cooking |

"Good post...I'm off out for a birthday dinner with my mate, I'll probably go for fish
Did I forget your birthday last month? 
Nope, it's tomorrow  "
I knew it was the beginning of a month in spring.
Enjoy tonight and I hope you have a shag lined up for tomorrow.

"Moroccan spiced chicken, potatoes and spring veg in the igloo tonight, I've just banged the chicken in the oven "
That's quite a size of oven if your banging a chicken in there! |
