Congrats @eggyg on your HS and have a fantastic weekend of celebrations for your big wedding anniversary. I hope that you are being well looked after by your family this special weekend.
We had a delayed meal out at our favourite restaurant for ours on Friday.
We were ‘outside’ under cover and the food was delicious.

09:35 BS 5.6 🙂 Normalcy has returned, as it was, now that cycle is over.
Ended yesterday, at some point, when I woke up 12:03 BS 13!😱 But, soon corrected & back down for the rest of the day. Played all 18 holes of my opening round in the tournament, got a HIO, scored -24 & in 15th. place when I finished. Have the whole of today to wait & won’t know if I’m in the final until 08:00 tomorrow.
Also, ordered a LOT of socks from the sock shop on amazon smile. All Lulu Guinness & rather snazzy especially, the Kooky Cat & Doll Face made from bamboo cotton: first came across socks made from that in HK in 2015 & they’re lovely, light, breathable & thinner than plain cotton; very nice in a hot, humid climate of HK in summer! Also, a new pulsar, the brand, leather strap watch: HAS to be leather as any other strap I’m allergic to!🙄
All arrived this morning & I picked up the post as the postman’s doorbell ring woke me up in bed: think I was only just still asleep & already starting to wake anyway; only reason I heard it, otherwise, from my bedroom near the back of the house. LOVE the socks: if you know Lulu Guinness, you’ll know know her signature lips, not SO keen on, that’s on practically everything but, I LOVE the Doll Face, saved up for & got 2 handbags (1 huge one I can’t really use much now due to shoulder injury so, got a smaller messenger type that I DO use & LOVE) in that design, &, to a lesser degree, Kooky Cat! 12 pairs in total to last me, I go through a lot of socks, & 1 pair of the lovely Doll Face had a wee hole it in so, need to send back for refund. All cotton trainer socks, which come up to ankle length on me, & only the Doll Faces are ankle, which come up to mid calf on me, in the thinner bamboo cotton: THAT is the slight drawback; thinner so, easier to hole! 🙄 BUT, even more annoyingly my watch came with no plastic ring around the winder, always a bad sign, & wouldn’t work so, the battery has died before it got to me: all new watches should always have that little plastic ring to stop the battery from going dead before YOU get it; even if the watch works ok, how do you know how long the battery has been running down? A rare
for that! So, that’s to be sent back for a refund too!🙄
They can both wait until Monday as I’m waiting for a Wilshire Farms Foods delivery from anytime in the afternoon, after 12:00 to about 18:00! Just in time as I’m more or less out of food thanks to a lot of stuff not available from asda on Wednesday! Weelll, there’s basa fillets & micro steamed veg but, that’s it!
I wish you all a Good Morning & have a Wonderful Day!😉

Good morning, folks🙂
Bit late reporting, been busy around the forum. Woke up on 5.1, close but no cigar. 🙄The exertions of getting out of bed has poked that up to 6.1, but at least I’ve got the evening Levemir right, with a nice straight line overnight.
Yesterday was a bad day after the exertions of the midweek CT scan, but back to normal today. Or, as normal as I ever get, which is pretty low bar by any standard. (I say that because there are DWP spies everywhere.) My mobilty scooter is now fully operational with new heavy duty batteries - that gives me around a thirty mile range. Or more like 25 at the speeds I travel. All it has to do is stop raining.🙄
I’m not going anywhere today, though. First day of a new test match, so I mustn’t linger distracting you from that. It’ll be the World Snooker Championship soon, so another couple of weeks of heart quickening sport ahead.😉
Congrats on the Ruby wedding, @eggyg. It’s our wedding anniversary next Thursday. Nowt special, got married in 1977. 44 years of the toothpaste tube being squeezed in the middle. Our marriage was saved by the invention of the toothpaste pump.
Have a good day everyone, don’t accept sweets from strangers. Or anyone, come to think. You’re diabetic

I think it originally started as that but it was started long ago and its a nice place to check in with each other every morning so it changed slightly, nothing wrong with that xx

Morning from a very wet Cumbria. 6.5 for me today. It’s our Ruby Wedding Anniversary so tomorrow’s figures could possibly reflect that! We aren’t going out, not ready for that, but we do have a nice meal planned and a bottle, or two, of Champagne. But first, haircuts! Hurray! I can’t wait, 21 weeks and 3 days since my last visit. I usually get my hair cut every three weeks so I’ve missed seven haircuts! Mr Eggy has missed ten! He is looking a lot like Peter Stringfellow at the moment! 😱 Have a great day everyone.🙂
