Stay safe and well.

My wife also wants us to go and look at tiles now that we've decided to get our bathroom done. The football sounds more exciting to be honest.
True story.
 
Morning everyone. Its bright and sunny here in Staffordshire but cool. I've woke to an 8.4 today and am looking forward to this morning. Going for a facial and back/shoulder massage which was bought for me in December but which i've been unable to use so far. Will take snacks just in case i go low as i know massage can sometimes do that (though it didn't last time).

-sb2015 enjoy your pub lunch

@Michael12421, fingers crossed October will come round quickly and you will be sorted out. In the meantime, take care

Have a good day everyone x
 
That’s it!

TBH no idea, most of my plants have names because I’m a sad mad plant lady - allergic to cats otherwise I’d be a sad mad cat lady too.
Useless avocado fact

They’re not trees but “plants” as they don’t have the trunk structure needed to be a tree

All avocado flowers are both female and male - the flowers open twice in a two day cycle. First time they open they’re female and the second time they’re male. All flowers on a single plant will be synchronised so that they’re all female one day and all male the next.

Oh and the name actually means testicles
 
6.9 this morning which I’m happy with. I had a chest X-ray last night and staying in until I have an angiogram hopefully on Monday, I learned last night that my sister in law passed away sad days.
have a nice day everyone I’ll be here if you need me!
Sorry to heat that. Take care of yourself x
 
5.4 today so that gives me a 5.5 average for the 7 days 🙂

Off to do more Art today. This time it’s the Wallace Collection and yes I will go to the shops later because I’m in need of something from M&S and I might pop into Selfridges and see if anything takes my fancy there too.

Other than that, not much to report. Other than I’ve reduced my metformin to maybe one tablet once every other day so I’m curious to know what the HbA1C will show.

@Gruers I thought of myself as an elite athlete once too. Darts and poker count as athletics don’t they?! 🙂
 
I come here in the hope not to see things like this! lol xx
You should have seen me play in my youth. I was a total natural. I could stand inches from the board or yards away and still be guaranteed to totally miss!
The local pub put a scoring grid on the ceiling just for me because I used to hit it so frequently!

I'm not a bad player (or should I say wasn't) but Bruce is excellent and plays for the county team etc although he isn't as interested at the moment in playing since lockdown, then breaking his wrist (thankfully not his throwing hand so he can still play) xx
 
Good Saturday everyone. I’m well late, as the youngsters say! But it was worth it, my metre has recovered its fives, a super, smashing 5.4! Chuffed with that, as the old folks say! A dry but cooler and breezy day. Spot of ironing perhaps today, and a wander down to Aldi, the world is my lobster, as Hilda Ogden used to say! Have a good ‘un whatever exciting things you’re up to. 🙂
@Gruers hope everything turns out ok for you and sorry about your sister-in-law.

I was utterly useless at pretty much all sport. Didn’t stop me throwing myself into some of them rather enthusiastically though.
I recall one school report which said “Colin tries hard but couldn’t catch a cricket ball if it was tied to his hands”. I was a decent skier though and won some small scale GS and downhill races. But other than that I’m universally useless at sports. Broke my ankle playing chess once!

Now we're talking, cricket and chess were 2 of my games, played chess competitions for the school and got my gold medal for cricket but thats as far as girls could progress when I was playing, these days they can play after that in the mens team, skiing I have never attempted xx

Avo says “How ruuuuude!” :D

Fascinating facts.

One a day now please.
 
Got my meter back today, first reading all week a disappointing 7.6. Did have a naughty little fudge last night so guess I’ll blame that. Lovely day here and having our ‘get together’ with our friends later for his 60th.
Have a good day all x

Yay! Counting stock. So exciting - not.

I once did a stock check on New Year’s Day in Bristol at a frozen food depot. Counting stock in minus 30°C!

When I first started work I’d play snooker a few times a week with a group of pals. My father suggested we go to the snooker hall one evening. He’d not played for many many years, so I thought, “I’ll show him how to play.” He thumped me!!
