Group 7-day waking average?

A 5.3 for me this morning! Hello from a cool and not very spring like Bristol...

Back from the hound walk via the bakers (I just go for the smell these days - sniffing like Lawrence the lab), over the Suspension Bridge, down to grab a coffee at the newly opened lush place up the road. Saw our famous neighbour; had a long chat about this and that - she enquired after the Morgan and I promised to take her out for a spin!

Grabbed a Guardian for later and now about to have yoghurt, peanut butter and berries before the world throws itself at me.

Leave for the airport about 3pm, departure due at 525pm - but with only 6 flights departing all day long, it won't be busy. Catching a train from Schiphol tonight straight to my hotel in den Haag seemingly named after an ice cream brand!

Packing for a trip - first one in 14 months is different: prescriptions in case they ask, masks galore, the blood test thinggy, pills and wee sealed snacks to post Brexit Europe !! All in hand baggage needless to say....The joys!!

No matter what you're doing, where you are: have a super one!

Bright and sunny here this morning, so we’ll need to make the most of it before rain arrives after lunch...at least the garden will be happy with that.

It’s already wet here, so it’s the exercise bike for me today. But, I have to say, the first time in a while.

Well, good luck with the business end and with the flight. Air France-KLM are two once great airlines now rather second rate.

I know - got the scars! Less than an hour though on board and I anticipate an empty-ish cabin too. Thanks also...a 55 minute puddle jump to the near continent seems like some magical adventure after the last year!
 
5.7 for me after another boozy night at a friend's bbq - at least this time no chips to gorge on (meats and Greek salad and dodged the bread) - feeling a trifle delicate this morning!
 
Was having difficulty getting on here earlier, when my reading was 4.4. 🙂
Wet miserable day today.

Morning folks and 6.6 for me. Granddaughter loved her presents, especially the camper van, so lovely to see them and have cuddles, they are gorgeous. My daughter had made pink cup cakes with pink icing so was very easy to resist. She had also made pina coladas which were more difficult to resist but I did (pat on the back for me).
Disaster followed as I had removed all my curtains from the caravan, put three of the smaller ones one to wash and when they came out of the machine the lining had completely disintegrated and there were marks all over the actual curtains. OMG I nearly cried. There are 8 curtains in the lounge area and really good quality so what’s happened I don’t really know. Anyhow have thrown off an email to Willerby to see if they have any left over. Will wait and see.
So lovely day here in Brighton and quite warm so will get out at some point today.
Hope you all have a good day x

Enjoy. Fingers crossed on the curtains... And a pina colada is always irresistible no matter!

I feel a love affair coming...dainty Camille and honking hulk Jemima meet bonnet to bonnet on a single track road...and the rest is history 😉 There she is at handover. I didn't realise she was so enormous as it was Madame's choice! View attachment 16888

Nice car. We got an F Pace as a courtesy car once as Camille was in for a service. We promptly went to pick up three of the grandchildren! It was a novelty having more than two seats. Mr Eggy thinking an electric one in a few years may be his next buy. Getting in and out of an F Type isn’t always easy. Especially when you’ve just walked a few miles up and down the Lakeland fells!
See you in Skye. 😉

10.1 for me this morning 😱( after a 3.3 at 3:30am. What’s with all the threes?!

Anyone got any all-consuming feedback to share on the Line of Duty finale?

Hmmm...a bit of a disappointing ending we thought. Inconclusive as always. There will be another series I think. I won’t say too much incase some haven’t watched it yet.

Morning all it’s a Bank Holiday 7.1

This week I will be trying to stay upright after falling and hurting myself last week, don’t fall over when your leg is in a cast it really really hurts!

Stay safe out there, have a good day.

Oh, Flower - do look after yourself! You poor thing.
 
Morning all from a very windy and wet Arran but it’s fine as it isn’t a bank holiday on Scotland! 😉 6.2 today.
Heavy rain and strong winds forecast all day so like @khskel, snooker final for Mr Eggy. Book, well kindle, for me, and watching the squirrel. He’s already been out, hence the lateness of my post. His little fluffy tail was blowing all over the place.

Have a great day, even if it seems we’re nearly all having a wet day, except for @SueEK. 🙂

One cup would be around 20g carb so not especially high, but without testing before and 2 hours after it's impossible to know what effect it had on your BG.

I did test before and after it went from 6.9 to 7.4 . I wait 2 hours between but it’s the next morning I see the difference

Ah but that’s why it’s a beautiful country the garden needs the rain
 
Morning all. After an ok day with levels yesterday, went to bed on a 5.7. I resisted the urge to have a biscuit as when i did this the night before it went high overnight. Didn't make a difference, i still went high overnight for most of it,waking to 9.2.
Line of Duty...i think there will be another series or special.
