Happy diaversary for tomorrow.
All this talk of jelly babies is making me hungry

How about a bronze jelly bean dispenser with a lifetime supply of JBs?

I have just the model for a gilt JB dispenser, not in the least unnerving! 😳 Normal JB for scale

That's a bit disappointing. Presumably charities can have off days, too. Any idea what might have happened, @Josh DUK ?

Not sure it's been three years since I last had a face to face assessment. My diabetes nurse left last may . No phone calls from the new one . If they have a new one .. left to your own devices. See what February brings . That's the last call I had from a new consultant.

Some of us use juice for hypos; could we be awarded a juice fountain?

Preferably not in the form of a Manneken Pis ...
