Group 7-day waking average?

Morning a 6.1 for me and very blustery and as everyone is saying Autumnal but don’t mind at all.
Third time this week going to Wales so will be bilingual soon but more important to understand the lunch menu and order Welsh rarebit rather than my usual cheese on toast lol.
Whatever you have for lunch and whatever you get up to enjoy
 
Morning everyone! A gently sloping 4.8 for me this morning.

Bit breezy out, and drizzle seems likely for most of the day.
 
Good morning 6.0
following some shocking spikes yesterday evening (shot up to 14.4)

I’m finding the freestyle Libre a fantastic tool
having tried it I can see how these sensors especially now they are CGM have the potential to be a game changer in diabetes management

On reflection I suppose not unexpected that my levels sky rocketed yesterday, I ate a high protein low calorie ready meal, without a thought as to checking the carb content, next time will eat just half a portion

as I said yesterday, I’m going to somehow try to appeal
just in case there is any chance I can get a sensor on prescription

so if I don’t get a reply back from the DSN/ Consultants messaging service today
will follow up with another voicemail

in the meantime I guess I will need to buy next month’s supply myself
after all I’m sure nothing will happen in a hurry

an alternative is I’ve just managed to find the Dexcom free trial
so will also also try them, although initially they appear slightly cheaper
as the sensor only lasts 10 days, I’m not so sure they are ?

Im impressed with Abbott and the way they sent me a second sensor FOC
after I called them telling them it was constantly loosing connection / was having an issue with it reconnecting to my phone

HAGD on this wet windy Wednesday

5.8 this morning, which has dawned dull, grey and blustery. Rained overnight, too. Think I'll drive down to Morrisons to pick up the newspaper (2 actually, as our local's out on a Thursday) and some fresh strawberries rather than get blown to bits walking there and back.

Have started packing for our week in Cornwall. My wife and I are travelling tomorrow, stopping at Clarkes Village in Street for lunch and to do some shopping, then pushing on for an overnight stop at a hotel just outside Exeter, and then on to Fowey on Saturday morning. (Our two boys and our eldest's girlfriend are travelling Saturday). Looking forward to Sunday's "Smite World Championships" in St Neot, the highlight of our week, which we've been taking part in for 10 years now and which attracts well over a hundred players.

This is Smite, for anyone who's curious as to what it is:-

Today is our youngest's last day at Sainsbury's and he seems relieved to be leaving. He's been finding it quite stressful for a while as they always seem to be short-staffed at busy times. He's a supervisor but finds himself having to fill in here and there because there's no one else. He's already applied for 2 jobs and his Optalis Support Worker has come up with some more for him to look at. At least he has a week in Cornwall to relax and unwind.

Just seen the forecast for tomorrow. It seems my wife and I will be driving west into a howling gale...!

Enjoy your day.
 
5.2 this morning for me! Surprised as during most of the night it was around 6, but obviously dropped a bit in the early hours.

Different day yesterday at Hatton Locks, there was an emergency repair needed on a lock gate which meant they had to drain a pound to get to it. Took about 4 hours by which time there was a queue of boats - 5 stuck in the flight below the stoppage and 15 at top lock waiting to come down! So we were very busy helping to clear the backlog when the flight was reopened!

Have a good day everyone!
 
A 5.0 for me this am. Bloomin' cold earlier on so had to put the heating on for a while. 😱

Morning all.7.6 on this cool, wet and windy day. Nothing planned apart from sorting my wardrobe.

@Lily123 good luck with your results.
@Eternal422 congrats on the HS
 
Good morning 5.9

Nasty grey damp morning here. Cold enough last evening to warrant lighting the wood burner. Overnight a touch of yellow has entered the beech leaves and flowers look battered and faded. Autumn is here.

Quite like the bungalow with 7 acres I saw yesterday. Needs solar panels and a stable block. Oh and a garden as the only thing growing was Himalayan Balsam. Good view to South over upper Towy Valley. Could be made quite nice. Just need a buyer...

Have a good day all.

We’re not going until end of September! We’ve been on the train up to Snowdon many years ago it was blowing a gale on the top! Very frightening and this was end of May! Is that a different railway?

We went up Snowdon on the train but when it was time to go back they said it was too windy and we could get off the train and return in three quarter of an hour, not a lot to do on the top of Snowdon in the wind and mist. We duly went back but still too windy so back into the visitors centre where they offered a free drink. They then announced the visitors centre would be closing so we all trouped back to the train where we sat for another hour. I had visions of us having to walk down and wondered what they would do with the people who couldn't and there were quite a few.
Still I can say I have done it after trying several times before but couldn't because of weather or the train wasn't running.
 
Morning

8.3 after quiche for my dinner last night. Like most of you today is blustery, with sunshine and showers, hope it is not too bad to walk back from my mums later.

Congratulations to @Lily123 on getting the results you needed. Good luck for the future.

@Eternal422 congratulations on your HS.

@Martin.A - enjoy Cornwall, I haven’t been for about 15 years, so excited to go in a couple of weeks.

And also loved the Caffeine Free Vanilla Coke Zero that I picked up on the way in.

Ooh! Where did you get it? I used to love Vanilla Coke Zero but can't find it anywhere now :(
 
Good morning! 7'4 today.

Had an enjoyable but intense 2 days off that included writing club, book club, dinner with a friend, playing a bit of casual football (no, I didn't expect that either!) and binge watching the second season of Heartstopper. That series is adorable. Now back to work.
