The rock star took to Instagram and Facebook to share the update over the long weekend, with a picture of him digging into a hearty meal of corned beef and mash.
“The calm before the storm. One of my favourite dinners, corned beef with mash, veg and white sauce. It’s lite white sauce in case you’re wondering,” he captioned the photo.
“A quiet night home with my girl before two shows on the weekend. Be safe on the roads and enjoy your long weekend everyone,” he added.

“Yum! You’ve lost a bit of weight mate!” commented a fourth person.
Jimmy’s photo left many fans nostalgic for their childhood, causing them to reminisce on the days their parents would serve them corned beef.
“That was my late dad's fav meal," wrote one fan. "Mashed potato, carrots, beans & white sauce.”
“My mum was from working class Manchester and one of my favourite dinners she cooked for us was corned beef mash. The corned beef was from a tin. Loved it. Enjoy mate,” wrote one fan.
“I can appreciate the fact that everybody thinks that their mum made the best corned beef with white sauce, but, nevertheless, I can assure you that my mum made the best corned beef with white sauce,” another quipped.
“I love this classic meal. It’s nostalgic, comforting, easy to make, and makes for great leftovers. A real crowd pleaser,” commented a third.
