    Worst bit is waiting for them, looking longingly at the jars, standing there with a plate of biscuits and cheese urging them on - no,no stop it.

    If I pop round and load up a plate and you steal from that, will that work? In our family stolen food doesn't count  ;)   But you'd have to do the same for me.

    Eating standing up is calorie-free as is eating broken biscuits.
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    It's well known that when biscuits break, the calories leak out.  I didn't know that about eating standing up, that's good to know.  How about licking out the mixing bowl?  When my husband brings home the chips from the shop, I have to sample one off each plate, it's called quality control.

    Licking out the mixing bowl? No need to wash up so saves water ... very important at the moment.  Is likely to be made compulsory

    Drinks also have hardly any calories. Alcohol off-gasses. Lemonade etc is mostly fruit juice, one of your five a day, even. Beer is mostly made of grass. Hot chocolate is calcium and protein for the most part.

    Chocolate and wine are made of fruit. That's two of your five a day sorted.
