Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 6.4 here. Very entertaining plot summary, @ColinUK . I only know the overture, I think my father had it on an old 78. (or several. If you wanted the whole opera on 78s, you’d have to build an extension to store them). I’ve never really got into Wagner, I think I'm put off by the heavyweight voices needed to sing them and be heard above the orchestra.

There’s a certain beauty with the power of the voices en mass that’s for sure. And he also wrote for huge orchestras so that means the singers have to have Power.
There’s also a signature haunting quality to the brass section in the things I’ve seen of his so far. It really is quite remarkable work even if it’s a bit “Germanic”.
There are times I can’t help but hear strains of “Tomorrow Belongs To Me” but I try and divorce the music from the man.

Next Wagner is Rheingold in a few weeks at the ENO and that’s got assorted deities, magic mountain dwelling dwarves and heaps of gold so I’m expecting that to be an utterly sensible plot with no deaths or misery at all.
 
Morning folks. 12.2 for me - I’ve got DP that I could set my watch by. Bang on 7 every day, my BG shoots up. Some tweaking needed, methinks. I also had a Pod failure at 3 am - I couldn’t work out where the beeeeeeeeeeeep noise was coming from. 🙂

A day of admin and trying to dodge OH’s stinker of a cold. 😱

I was thinking along the lines of this one with bespoke passenger lift that featured on Grand Designs. Mind you it might be jinxed as the couple split with the house subsequently being sold.

The Other House looks totally unsuitable. Actually I would happily settle for a two bedroomex bungalow!

Good morning. A bit grey, misty, dreary here. BG 6.3.

Happy to report I am now teacher's pet after all my hard work. He is now helping me to research the Veneti who seem to be the only blokes who had any ships with potential to import horses...also he is going to check my research on British horse size pre-Roman which, he admitted, he had not done. Chat degenerated into Education cut backs and his much loved but departed horse...Smiles all round.

Not much planned except planning - family descending for half-term so need to lay in all sorts of unsuitable foods. NB Wonder where you can buy earmuffs.

Have a good day all.
 
And for me a higher than usual 6.3 for me today, must have been the chocolate I had before bed last night.
 
5.4 for me with 2 JBs overnight to get me there but thankfully otherwise uneventful. I really wasn't sure what my evening Levemir needed to be as levels had been steady all day until I ate something in the afternoon and then they skyrocketed and silly amounts of Fiasp were needed to hang onto control. I upped the evening dose by half a unit but should have stuck with my original 4. Libre alarm and JBs saved me from a dip into the red though so I am happy about that and I was back to sleep in minutes, which was my main concern with the Libre 2 alarms disturbing my sleep and more importantly Ian's. That said, it is still a lot quieter than his snoring, so not sure why I should be worried about disturbing him. 🙄

Many congratulations to our trio of House Special achievers this morning and absolutely loving CCC. What I want to know is how you know that the ballet didn't convey the reality of an orgy @ColinUK 😉 Something you want to share?? I love that you had such interesting engagement with other members of the audience. I think that may be the real "joy" of the event.

What can I say other than I’d never be cast as Simon Templar!
 
Morning all - another clear, sunny day. No wind. I can live with this.

7.9 for me this morning.

@MeeTooTeeTwo , @MikeyBikey and @Eternal422 Congratulations! Extremely well done all! I am eaten up with envy. It would be so nice to see ANYTHING in the 5s.

@ColinUK thank you for CCC. I loved it! You going to Leicester to buy a bed frame (why?) reminds me of doing a "booze cruise" to Roscoff and assuring hubby that we could find some table lamps in a shop near "Geant" supermarket that I had seen in passing. I told him it specialised in lighting. Turns out it was a "Literie" i.e. a bed shop! Egg on my face.

Well, must get a shift on... meeting a g/f for lunch and then to the cinema to see "The Fabelmans".

Have a lovely Wednesday all!
 
Morning all and 6.8 for me.

What's happening here then, hypo after tea and now hypo after breakfast. Investigation required!

Rehearsal room this aft. Going to try and network keyboard and laptop to make backups easier.

Have a good day everyone.
 
It was 9.4 for me I had been awake for a bit before testing
