Afternoon ev1. 🙂 I’m having a clearout and have three books on diabetes looking for a good home. They are:

1. The 7 step diabetes fitness plan by Sheri Colberg.
This book’d suit a T2 diabetic - it focuses on making long-lasting changes, rather than just dieting, and includes some excellent advice on healthy eating and exercising whatever your size and physical ability.

2. Using Insulin by John Walsh et al.
This is for anyone on insulin and is very comprehensive.

3. Think Like a Pancreas by Gary Scheiner (2nd edition).
Another great book for anyone taking insulin. Written with a sense of humour.

Let me know if you’re interested in one of these books and I can send it to you. :D
 
No takers? 🙂
 
The only one I haven't already got is the first one, funnily enough, but a brill offer cos certainly neither of the two I have got were cheap and these would be free to a good home!

And Bloden, folks, is as good as her word on such things.
 
Didn’t see this yesterday. If nobody else has snaffled the first one then yes please!

Oh goody! PM me your address and I’ll stick it in the post when I get home on Thursday. What happened about the Overcoming Overeating book? Do you want it @Lanny or can Colin have it? :D
 
Ok so how do I send a private message?!
 
@ColinUK At the top of the page press the little envelope to the right of your profile pic. Then put in the member you want to send message to & post your message in the box!

How odd, I don’t have the option to initiate a PM. I can see them and I can respond but not create one.

That IS odd & no admin online at the moment! 🙄

@Bloden , could you PM @ColinUK so, he can respond to your message with his details?

See how that works? Will PM the admin I see online & try & get that sorted for you.
 
It’s probably something I’m doing. Or not doing. Or some box I’ve not ticked
 
No Admin on at present and I don’t have access to help with this @Lanny
@LucyDUK will be around this evening.

I lost the position of the PM when the forum was rebranded, but then spotted the little envelope, and on the drop down the prompt to start a new conversation.

Try clicking on Bloden underneath her avatar pic, box opens up, at bottom you should have Follow Ignore Send private message.
It seems to have been a problem for many since upgrade of forum that Admin need to do something, though.

Not for me... no option to send message...

Weird. But at least we all now know what to do for a fast result if there's no Admin around, so thanks Colin & Bloden for being the guinea pigs!
 
Hi @ColinUK
I have put a tick in the box that was missing one and you should now be able to PM to your hearts desire. If that hasn't worked let me know.
