Group 7-day waking average?

I didn't mean it to sound like I was moaning about the coverage. I was just reflecting on the fact that those who were will probably moan even more following the Queen's passing.

I hope that my post didn’t come across as a go as you Martin cos it wasn’t meant that way. I agree with you, and others, that there has been too much coverage the last few days 🙂
 
@KARNAK Ted I obviously spoke too soon the other day - hope you heal quickly and stop bothering those lovely nurses at the hospital!! X
@Maca44 congrats on the HS, hope you can get your sleep pattern in better order soon
 
5.7 but getting to that involved a slight correction an hour earlier. I just fancied rolling over and having another hour after the alarm went off and levels were rising slightly and it does make a difference mentally if I start the day on a decent number. Should have had an hour and half and I might have been sitting on the HS step with @Anitram .... Congratulations! Good to see you back on form!
I managed to pull my other calf muscle yesterday (Did my right one on Christmas Eve). Pinged at the top of a steep hill on my second lap out running and had to hobble home. I knew I should have varied my exercise and walked yesterday instead of running 2 days in a row! Arrgh!

@Ditto
Hope you feel better soon. Please seek medical help if you think you need it. Eating disorders are horrid. There's poor Nikki Grahame just lost her battle with her eating disorder. What you are struggling with seems to me to be similar but the opposite extreme and you need help with it. You keep putting yourself down and saying it is greed but I am sure it is compulsive for you and you should be getting help.

@Ted
It really helps if you negotiate steps forwards and on your feet and ideally use the handrail! 😉 Leave the urban running and acrobatics to the youngsters please or go to a children's padded play area to practice!
Seriously, please take more care.
Hope you aren't too sore but I imagine you are and will probably be worse tomorrow before you start to improve. Take it easy and please take more care!

Have you always been accident prone? I know my brother is but even he doesn't have as many incidents as you! Terrifies the life out of me when my cousin sends him his chain saw to fix/service! My cousin really should know better but he gets a free repair/service! I'm the one living next door who will have to deal with any accidents/injuries and I am not sure my first aid training covered limb amputation if the worst were to happen! Dad would never have let him loose with a chain saw.... even a broken one. Give him his due, he is good at fixing things though!
 
What silly billy forgot to post this morning's reading which was 4.3. 🙂

That’s a bummer Ted. I hope you recover quickly.

Maybe this’ll cheer you up just a bit:

Congratulations on your HS @Maca44 🙂 BUT, does it feel strange to be 1 mmol higher than your usual 4’s?😉

Yes very strange I don't like odd numbers I am very obsessional 😉
 
Wow @HenryBennett lovely bikes, used to spend a lot of time on the back of them as a teenager though never rode one myself. My hubby had one but there was no way I would have got on the back with him!!

Thx Sue. My main holiday for many years was a couple of thousand miles around Europe, especially the Alps. But since moving to NI that’s not practical and the roads here don’t lend themselves such a big heavy bike, so I’ve downsized to a Yamaha middleweight.

Ah shame but great memories I’m sure. I still see my old boyfriend who had the bike as he runs the local pet shop and we always reminisce about the old days on the bikes. He still has a huge bike and often asks me to go for a day trip with him, don’t think my husband would be keen so have to politely decline haha. The group used to meet at my house and there would be a dozen helmets and boots in the hallway and they all called my mum Mrs B and were so respectful to her. Great times.

Happy days.
For some reason (answers on a postcard) I was often asked what Harley riders are like. I’d always say: long hair, beards, tattoos, beer bellies - and that’s just the women!

It‘s just over ten years ago that I went to European Bike Week in Austria. 100,000 bikes, of which about 90% are Harleys.

Did you ride over the Gross Glokener into Italy (Spelt wrong) in Austria, we drove it and it was amazing.

I did and, as you say, amazing. Especially a group of 30 Harleys.
 
Better this week than the one before.
