For the slightly older people here, Bamber Grassgroin makes me think of Reggie Boozealot.
 
Oh the lovely Reginald Bosenquet!! They don’t make news readers like that anymore he was often channelling his inner Jackie Weaver ( if you don’t know who Jackie is just type it into a search engine and enjoy) on News at Ten!

They certainly don’t. Especially with his tail piece at the end of the news. But was he hamming it up, or had he had a few drinks? I never knew.

Jackie Weaver was on The Last Leg last night. What a marvellous lady! :D
 
Another 8 and rising this morning. I was wondering where to post the following, but so many threads and so little time (i wish) i have never watched so much tv in all my life as i have this winter. I was totally addicted to the series Father Brown after the lunchtime news. That has now been replaced with The Mallorca files. Yesterday the detectives were searching for a missing diabetic. They found his insulin pen and later when they discovered him on the verge of death the woman detective got out the insulin pen (looked like novorapid) and just jabbed the man. Hey presto he suddenly recovered. I completly lost it, it may have just been a story but 1 she didn't dial up any insulin 2 she seemed to just jab it in the chest, 3 nobody would recover that quickly. WHILST ITS ONLY A STORY i know....it reminded me of the times when i have been hypo and people around me have tried to get me to take my insulin. It was infact a downright dangerous thing to show and i had nightmares about it. Oh i would have preferred Bamber Gasgoine!
 
@Inamuddle I feel your frustration, things like that wind me up too, in Casualty for instance, or Kerry in Emmerdale is supposed to be Type 1 but you never see her test or anything, just the bad hypo's or eye problems etc

My dad and his GF are both "trained" first aiders but when I asked them what they would do if I was hypo replied with "give you insulin" when I said no you give me sugar my dad actually told me I was wrong! xx
 
@Inamuddle and @Kaylz i agree with you both. Very few people know anything about it and often say "you can't eat that". There does need to be more information out there. I've put a leaflet in our staffroom about what to do if i have a hypo i can't deal with though not sure if many people have read it. The people i work closely with check on me if i've gone to treat a hypo and they are really good. Pity its not publicised generally though.

I also agree @Kaylz @freesia and @Inamuddle I’m having issues getting some colleagues to understand things and the fact sometimes I actually have no control over it and things like how about you work part time to prevent hypos ? Mmmm really that won’t help - a lack of education or possibly ignorance 🙄
 
It’s very hard trying to educate people . As I keep saying to my parents I can eat anything I just choose to eat a low carb diet . I’m lucky my manager read and read about type 1 so that he could support me
 
04:15 BS 5.7 🙂 Still in the 5’s!😛:D😉

Binge watched all 4 episodes of the 2nd series of Rupaul’s Drag Race UK: still a little bit off kilter with the judges for the 1st two episodes; then, got the hang of it again, more or the less the entire 1st series to get in line with the judges viewpoint, & got it right with the 3rd & 4th episodes! :D Who would have EVER thought that I, in italics, would enjoy watching drag: maybe STILL not getting it ENTIRELY; getting there bit by bit & it’s still an education!o_O:D😛😎😉

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

PS:- am looking forward to seeing more episodes IF there’s more: on a bit of a cliffhanger with the preview of the next episode at the end of episode 4? 🙄
 
Morning all,
A 5.8 this morning, no snow as yet, expected to see some overnight but it is raining out there.
Had a zoom quiz last night at church, didn't feel very clever at start, scores proved that later!

Have a blessed day everyone,
Snowwy
 
4.9 again today at 6am. A good start to the day.
 
Good morning all.
9.0 for me (rolls eyes!) And it was all going so well. Rethink and reset are the words that shall guide my day today and tomorrow I hope to be 'there' cos today just ain't happening!
Strength to all who are struggling in what ever way X
 
4.5 for me this am. 🙂
It's cold and frosty out, so back to bed with my Sunday cryptic crossword. 😎

Dez
 
Moooorning! :D 9.1 here...oops, a JB too far before bed.😛 Oh well...

Got to do some turbo-charged knitting today. One of my oldest friends is 50 next weekend, so I need to finish knitting her present...like, yesterday!:D...so that I can get it in the post asap.

Keep warm folks.😎
