Morning all, 6.0 on the dot here. Went to bed a bit higher than usual in case I dropped in the night, after a long walk yesterday. We live on the unfashionable side of the Cotswolds, so the walk was nearly deserted, especially after we’d got a couple of miles from our village.
That made me laugh, we live on the unfashionable side of the Lake District, so like you we have lots of walking direct from our door that no one else bothers with. Thank goodness. We’re off for another “ poor man’s Lake District” walk today. 🙂
Morning everyone, 7,1 today, first day of not going to work. Son went up on the Downs yesterday, said it was mobbed so came home again. Take care all x
PS our surgery our trying to set up a hub in an old surgery where those of us who have been told to isolate, for reasons of age or underlying conditions, can work in separate rooms to help as they are so short staffed, I’m happy to do that as feel a total fraud sitting at home. Will wait to see how that pans out.

Sainsbury's has just posted this on their site "Changes to our home delivery service from tomorrow
We'll be prioritising elderly, vulnerable or customers with a disability for home delivery slots from tomorrow (Monday 23 March). If you don't get an email from us today, please come back tomorrow for information on how to contact us."
8.0 this morning. A little bit higher than I would like but as the gastroparesis is still giving me more problems than usual I’m happy with it as it was a smooth line through the night.
Yep, my manager came up to me and one other member of staff who is type 1 and told us we shouldn't be in work and to go home, potentially for 12 weeks!!! They are going to let us know if anything changes.
Good morning peoples!
I'm joining Baz on the 7.3 step today.
Yesterday afternoon my eldest & grandson called in with bunches of colourful flowers gifts and cards. As it was a gorgeous sunny day we sat talking in my garden 2mtrs apart, had a good laugh setting up WhatsApp video call! I've been in isolation for ten days now ~ only another eleven wks to go then I'll hopefully be freeeeed from my four walls, unless Boris changes his mind!
Had a carby day yesterday from start to finish!😱For dinner I had a lovely lamb roast with 3 veggies cooked to perfection & delivered by my eldest ~ shush don't tell but I had 4 tasty roast potatoes too! Afters was a large-ish portion of deeelicious strawberry gateaux to die for😛 MmmMmm! I could eat it all again right now😛
Right I'm off to begin my daily boring chores! Well a gal has to amuse herself to while away the day!
Take care folks ~ have a nice day ~ and please stay safe.

Went to our little Tesco yesterday. Posters up everywhere about social distancing. Ev1 respecting advice at the till. I went over to the self-service till. Next thing, a young woman appears at the till next to mine and actually shoves me...wot? Some people are just...I dunno...stupid / away with the fairies / oblivious?
Good morning 7.3 on a beautiful sunny morning,🙂 7.3 popular today Baz & WL. Beach area was chockered yesterday so came back home,😡 took me all of 10 minutes.🙄 Paperwork today and waiting for prescription delivery so lots to keep me going, managed an hour on the balcony yesterday in the sun mind you I think I got more wind burn than sun.😎
Good choice @khskel time to knock it on the head.🙂
Unusual @Stitch147 I would have thought they could ill afford staff to be absent, hey ho their loss.🙂
Hi there
I won’t list my post hypo (or post false-hypo) reading this morning as it’s way too high and will raise your average too much but I’ll try again tomorrow

6.0 this morning and I've been naughty yesterday, far too naughty really but I figure I need more carbs for gardening activities
Its wonderful sunny day here again, I am going to try and do a bit every day the sun shines to prepare beds etc, for food plants (currently starting in the greenhouse)
