Group 7-day waking average?

When you do decide to do this Colin, possibly try for fostering, that way you will get a good idea of what the cat's personality is like and whether you 'suit each other' without any permanent commitment. I would love to have a cat again but my dog might eat it and my DIL is allergic to cats - shame.
You make your dog sound like it’s from Baskerville Hall!

Haha, not quite but if a cat runs she’s gone, we have two that come in the garden one just sits there and she goes nowhere near it but the other one runs and she’s off, I certainly wouldn’t trust her. To be fair it’s more my DIL, she has dreadful asthma and cat hair is the worst for her.
 
@ColinUK I've always gone and got a new kitten as soon as possible after I lost an "old friend". Try Cats Protection. They do such an amazing job. All our cats have been "rescue" cats, and lived for 18, 15 and 13 years. Our current one was born and lived for a short while on the top of a 3 storey building before being rescued.
She's nearly 7 years old now, a house cat, and as healthy as can be.

Good afternoon 5.8 after struggling yesterday with low BGL`s ended up checking every hour,
had a large dinner about 17:30 reduced the bolus, back down to 4.2 and dropping 2 hours
later.😡 All sorted now everything stable only thing is I can`t check any readings, the meter
is faulty I think, must have been when I smashed it to bits, dunno why it wont read maybe the
French can sort it out? Why the French you ask? no obvious reason except I threw it off the
pier after that, next stop France.😳:D

Congratulations @adrian1der & @khskel on HS.🙂

There! THAT’S cheered ME up a bit too! :D😉
Cheered us up too @Lanny, take care we`re here for you.🙂 xx

Take care stay safe folks, good luck to everyone who had appointments today.🙂
 
5.8 this morning. Seems shortbread and flapjack didn’t bother too much 🙂 I’ll push it with birthday cake tonight

Busy on line day. I feel we need to teach the nations young people to read ..... squarely at the English departments door!!! Although today (sorry @freesia !) I’m blaming my primary school year 6 teacher sister! Honestly....

I will see you live and in person in real life on-line at 10.00am

And the responses
Is it live ?🙄
What time does it start? 😳🙄
Will you actually be there ? 😳🙄o_O

Oh well always change of a repeat tomorrow and the next day. Hopefully we’ll all get it soon

Hahahahaha @Bexlee!! That is so funny :D but frustrating for you. I'm glad we don't do live teaching! I hope you've had a good birthday otherwise.
I've been resourcing for some of our children then sending it to the Teacher to put on the portal with the other resources, then making phone calls to parents and children to check everything is ok etc. Until this afternoon....when my internet and landline went down and after 25mins on my mobile the provider said it would be back hopefully before midnight on the 18th!! In school to do my stint tomorrow so can try and catch up then but if its not back on soon,i can't do anything Friday.
I had 27 tries to get through to the DVLA today. When i finally managed to get through i was on hold for 40 mins to find that they had had my renewal, it was now in a queue to be reviewed, no they couldn't tell me anything and no they didn't know how long it would be. Very helpful. Hopefully if they sort it out properly this time, i'll be able to renew it online next time (as long as i have internet).
All in all, a bit of a day. Can't wait for the weekend.
 
@Bexlee i seem to be rubbish lately at realising it’s somebody’s birthday, many happy returns and hope you have had a good one xx
 
@Bexlee Happy birthday from me too. Hope the cake was good!

Oh no internet and phone = nightmare.

Hope driving licence doesn’t take too long to sort out. .... also a nightmare

I can’t wait for teenagers and registration. I’m starting to think they log on or in, turn the camera off then vanish again !
 
Had a nice day overall thanks. The cake has taken me to the dizzy hight of 9.1 currently and on top of a Chinese I’ll take that 😎 see what it is in the morning !
 
Sure is @freesia, I`m like it all the time I went to a church the other day because I was brought
up a Catholic, Father Ted was there a distant cousin a bit fickle. Knelt down to say a prayer and
over he came oh my dear Edward such a joy to see you in the house of God, I said thankyou
Father are any of the Nuns about? Alas they are not available for quite a few months, oh have you
got a problem in the Convent? well yes we have we`re trying to keep it quiet, are they all ok? well
better tell you just keep it to yourself.

No problem Father I`ll even say a prayer now to the Holy Mother, no need my son the Nuns are all
pregnant and the Bishop is due to visit today, I said they can`t all be pregnant by the same man, he
said all they say is (itsted) what all of them yes he said. Oh dear I said what is the Bishop going to say?
we`ll have to tell him the convent has a virus and no visitors allowed, can you see the Bishop to the
vestry? no problem Father when`s he due? any minute now.

And he arrived with all his magnificent regalia on and was greeted by Father Ted who introduced to
me, please let me escort you to the vestry where there are condiments and wine for your tasting,
got him into the vestry and served his wine and another one and another one. I said your finginess I
have to go home and thank the Lord for our evening meal, what a true Christion to our faith I`ll have
to thank Farther Ted for the hospitality, my pleasure your crapiness, don`t forget to check out the
Convent the Nuns will be delighted to see you.

Made my way out and he shouted what`s your name young man? turned around and looked at him
(itsted) you will always remember me.

Producer Freesia.
Director Bexlee.

Based on a book by Pharaoh Nuff.

Preface went you want to laugh and can do it, if not smile loudly.

In memory of that great Apache warrior, Big Chief shitty ass.

Sleep well folks wake up to a nice HS we all deserve one.
 
Oh Ted @KARNAK in fine form, I see & sailing rather too close to the wind but, we know & like you by now! 🙄:D😉

04:44 BS 6.7 :D Felt like a HS I can tell you! It was a battle to stay sleeping last night in that I woke SO many times puffing away like a steam train & I’m certain it was apnoea! But, I got the rest I needed & all night every dream was a highly stressful one of the old restaurant days, nights really, when it’s packed & I’m running around like a headless chicken keeping what needs to be done straight in my head!😱

I’m rather shocked by my first decent waking reading since being ill as, confession time, I ate a whole load of shortbread in bed, so many I lost count, & just guessed the bolus; must have got it right? 😳😛:D

I woke up feeling the difference right away & it was worth the battle to stay sleeping! At times like this I think of the 80’s Pat Benatar song “Love Is A Battlefield” only in my case it’s “Sleep Is A Battlefield”! 🙄:D

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
