Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all - @Martin.A gird your loins for some truly horrible weather, since you always get ours 12 - 24 hours later. High wind thrashing trees around and lashing down.

7.1 this morning - am sick of 7s. Roll on my appointment with the DSN in November as I have no idea how (or even if it's possible) to tweak this HCL set up.

We have been invited to lunch at some friends' today. I'm looking forward to it, but not to the 1.15 hour drive to Fowey in this weather!

Enjoy your Sunday everyone.
 
G'day all. Horrid weather in Manc. Went to the skip to chuck my black binbag in and couldn't get back inside the flat quick enough brrr. 7.6 @ 9.40am bit of a lie in as I was awake most of the night for some reason. Stupid insomnia.
 
I never liked them. They were far too thick. Also I never drove trucks so obviously they weren’t for me.

Do they still make them? I remember when they first came out: it felt so decadent biting down into them (rather than a thin Dairy Milk) but I found them a bit sickly once the novelty had worn off.

Never tried one. Apparently the female of the species aren’t allowed them, and as I’m a law abiding citizen I did as I was told! 😉

They are now! Apparently there was a tone-deaf promotion a year or two ago that didn't allow women to redeem the vouchers. Quite rightly, it was overturned after a legal challenge. I wouldn't buy them now because of that - even if I were allowed them!

The wind's arrived but no rain yet. That's due this evening, but most of it's forecast for overnight. Gone cold, though - our CH has come on and I've changed into one of my woolly jumpers.
 
I forgot to mention (thanks for the reminder to share @Gwynn ) that our church did have bring and share lunch today. So I made gluten free dairy free lemon drizzle cake last night, and some mini vegan crustless "quiches" to make sure that fiancé got to eat something (there was also chicken and potato salad and coleslaw he could have, though he opted not to bother with the coleslaw or potato salad). Very much a beige buffet, not much in the way of salads apart from pasta salad which is still carby, but it was never going to be a low carb day today as I decided due to the waking early to do the home-made oral glucose tolerance test that I've been thinking of doing. (Will post that separately). Some of my lemon cakes left, so I left most pieces with fiancé as he has paperwork to get on with this afternoon, and brought a few slices back for me. (And just eaten two more, yum - though I think I should have bought 2 more lemons for the drizzle when I went shopping yesterday having found the ones I had only gave enough juice for the cakes, would have made it even more lemony)

I also left the confetti at church in the care of the verger since I had got around to putting it in envelopes this morning, one less thing for fiancé to remember to take on the day! Still a bit left in the main packet in case the envelopes don't quite go round everyone (I think they should if parents share with little children, but doesn't hurt to have the rest available)

So are Yorkie Bars!

They used to have a billboard for Yorkies at York Station (not been for a few years so it might still be there) that said "Welcome to York where the men are hunky and the chocolate is chunky" :D
Mr B is from York so I can't disagree!!
 
Good evening! A late post today as life came into the equation. It was the 59 Club Day at the Ace Cafe but sadly I could find no way to get there - return by wheelchair taxi would have needed at least 5 numbers on last night's Lottery and I only got 2!

Broken cloud with some sunshine all day

Trust everyone had a good day

Oh and BG was 6.6 and 8.0 by traditional means
 
Good morning/moaning. Going down Route 6.6 with BG. Having a cuppa as woken by Phantom Pain which I could not ride out so waiting for pain killers to kick in. :(

No appointments till Wednesday although foot dressing could do with changing as not enough absorbent material put over skin contact dressings so lymph fluid seeping through and it turns brown when it hits the air and partially dries. :(

Rain running down kitchen window. In case you are wondering I am on the first floor looking towards a few trees. The set up makes using the blind impossible from a wheelchair and I doubt the trees could take the weight of a Peeping Tom watching an aging rocker having a cuppa! :rofl:
 
5.3 when I first woke, still tired but not managing to drop off to sleep so going to get up. Might start work early as I'll have an extra long "lunch" break as my youngest has physio appointment today, so I'd otherwise need to work into the evening
