Group 7-day waking average?

Congratulations to you and your family MikeyB.

7.4 for me after a uncontrolled sugar binge yesterday, marzipan, biscuits that were part of someone's Christmas present, I just could not stop myself, I was like a sugar monster I wanted sugar and nothing was going to get in my way and stop me. Anyway very sore throat in the night and a horrible headache, looks like I have succumbed to the latest lurgy going around the office, and might explain the severe sugar craving last night, or maybe I am just making an excuse for a lack of self control, but not had a binge like that in ages.
 
Congratulations @mikeyB

Lovely news - all enjoy the new family member.
 
Good morning folks 7.4 on my new sensor , not blooded a finger yet but it was accurate when I fired it up last night. I hope I’ve not tempted fate there.
Hope you all have a good day.
 
7.6 for me on this cold wet morning
 
Morning to the electorate. A disappointing 6.8 after a couple of days in the fives. I had a better day yesterday and actually could weight bear on my left leg. Mind you I did nowt again. The test today is to walk to the polling station which is only a 100 meters away or so. Wish me luck. Congratulations @Northerner on the HS. You’ll be running to your polling station I would imagine. 🙂
 
Good morning people.

Ooops that wasn't meant to be a full image!!!

I seem to have fallen off the wagon since I became ill. Well not seem to ~ I have.
My meter chucked out an 8.7 on this damp dark voting day.
3.0mmol higher than my normal waking. I tested 9.8 @ 03:0am!
Going for a chest xray later today. My GP has concerns that I have COPD but I can't have the Spirometry test until 6wks after I've finished the steroids & antibiotics. O happy days!!

Hope everyone who is poorly sick feels better soon.
Take care and stay warm.
WL
Edited to add Spirimetry test.

No, I'll be hobbling too - I've got a sore foot :(
 
Morning all, 8.2 for me today. Managed to finish my Christmas shopping yesterday. Just the last food bits to collect which I've ordered from work, but that will be on the 23rd.
 
When my foot was starting to feel slightly better my grandad went and dropped his clumpy metal walking stick on it yesterday, ouch!

Received a lovely gift from a DIY eliquid vendor yesterday, only ordered a £10 order and free gifts were with orders over £25 so I’m pretty chuffed, thought my mixing was finished this year but seems not, the concentrates were their recently released Festive Fog range so now need to mix Gingerbread House, Raspberry Roulade, Candy Cane and Irish Ice Cream, all smell amazing so fingers crossed they taste as good, also should have a Gingerbread concentrate on the way from a member of the mixing group I partly run

Anyways I'm claiming this20191212_060706.jpg although it was 4.3 40 minutes later🙄 I better try and get some shoes on shortly and join the hobblers to pop out to vote, the school used to be our polling station but as the old cricket club has been revamped and opened as a sort of community place that is being used, haven’t been there since I played cricket, got my gold medal on kwick cricket and had to stop as females weren’t allowed to go any further, it wasn’t like that by the time the crickety closed though

Have a nice day folks
xx
