Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning. 5.6 which is rather better than yesterday. Old friend dropping in this morning as she does when she comes down to teach - 78 and still climbing on board pupil's massive horses no matter how disobedient. Fine gardener too.

Have a good day everyone.

I have all my favourites on series link ( and have catchup TV) but I find sometimes I just can’t find the time to watch them. I’m old fashioned, I suppose, I like to watch them when they are scheduled. I rarely think of watching things ahead of their schedule. It gives you routine/order to your week when you know XY or Z are on at such and such time and day. We only have normal TV, although we can tap into our daughter’s Netflix if we wish, and I agree about just having the four channels, we have too much choice but still nothing to watch. We’ve become a nation of instant gratification.

Nothing wrong with a bit of instant gratification.
If it wasn’t for that we’d never have had the joy of Angel Delight after all. Not that that was instant but it’s close enough!
 
5.2 for me when I woke at 7.45am busy today getting washing dried (fingers crossed) and getting organised for my granddaughters to stay tonight, school run in morning its a long time since I had two little ones to get up and oldest to school 🙂
 
Morning all. 7.1 here.

Ooo, goody, Bake Off! Hubby gave a huuuuge groan when I reminded him...and will continue to groan, whinge, moan, sulk while I watch it - how easily he forgets the utter drivel he makes me sit thru.

Mr Eggy goes to Camera Club on a Tuesday. It’s bliss! He sometimes gets home just as they announce who’s leaving and he gets short shrift if he so much as opens his mouth!

My ex used to watch Bake Off. She said it was exciting whereas F1 was boring. I will never understand women! 🙂

P.S. I enjoy MasterChef The Professionals messing up the skills test! 🙂
 
Good morning everyone

BG 4.9

I am having trouble with a Yodell delivery. They could not locate my house yesterday. I tried web chat...straight though to a very pleasant chap in India. Unfortunately not a lot of help. Maybe they will deliver today...

Have a great day today whatever you are doing
 
6.2 for me this morning which I am very happy about. Stats are looking a bit better at 90% TIR but still a shocking 8% below the red line for the past 7 days. 😱 I'm doing my best, honest guv!

Ah you should have tried Instant Whip! 😉

Butterscotch was my favourite.
I used to work for a packaging research company who did strength testing on packaging of all sorts of things but then they gave away the products to staff, so sometimes you got a carton of beer or tins of beans or a pack of instant whip but 24 packets all the same flavour was a bit much.
 
And a happy 5.6 for me at 08.15 this morning.

I'm off for an endoscopy early this afternoon to see if my stomach ulcer has cleared up, fingers crossed.

You’re allowed to drive at 4.8 so long as you’ve had a snack so I’d just have a piece of toast and go

Thank you. I just prefer to be a bit higher to drive as i know for me, when i'm in the 4s, if i'm going to drop it drops really quickly. There are such busy roads on the way to work its hard to pull over and check or wait if i've gone hypo. I just don't like risking it too much.

9.6 at 6am, did a correction and 1hr40 later I’m down to 7.8, should drop a bit more by the time I get dressed and down to breakfast.

It’s my last hotel breakfast today, so hopefully there’s some good choices as I’m continuing the very long journey home after that. Set off yesterday and will arrive tomorrow!

Have a safe journey home.

Oh I do too. It’s so cringy sometimes.

PS my youngest daughter loves F1, I can’t for the life of me understand why, she also loves Bake Off and tonight we’ll have a “conversation” via Messenger when it’s on.

Does she maybe like Max or Charles?

My first love is motorcycle road racing like the TT and the NW200. I was involved in stock car racing for years and still went occasionally pre pandemic and amputation. Starred following F1 in the mid-seventies and feel in was more enjoyable then. 🙂
 
Well, the new King is at Royal Hillsborough today in NI & watching it on the iPlayer, waiting for his speech later. :confused:

I’ve only been there twice before: 1st time as a 12 year old in 1984 on a school trip to the castle, doesn’t look like one at all but, rather a very large house; the 2nd time in 20’s, I think around 1995/6, for a festival on the lawns! A beautiful place with huge gardens & a lake with an extremely long drive through all the lawns up to the house, 2 miles! Did it once on the 1st trip but, of course there’s a short cut where the road crosses the drive near the top which I used to enter the castle grounds the 2nd time! o_O:D:rofl:😉

Yep! Folks! :D Little Miss Classical Music HAS been to a festival, ONCE & only once in my life!😱:rofl:😉 Definitely NOT for me, though but, gave it a go in my 20’s!o_O
