Your almost finished . You will get colder weather here . Id look after your diabetes. You could do my back garden for Free . i promose no BS @ lol lol lolGood morning. 5.7 after 2 days sitting in a sweltering digger cab and consuming mainly ice cream, orange squash and lager - had to wash the DF118's down with something. Expected a BG in the stratosphere but thought heat stroke a more urgent threat. What a weird complaint dabetes is.
Managed to get 100m of the roadside cleared, heaped the topsoil on the site of projected shrubbery, scraped down the area for the projected kerbs and garden wall. Promised helpers didn't bother to turn up so had to keep struggling out of and back into the machine. Thank goodness my arms are less argumentative than my legs as I was hanging off the side like a demented ape and hauling myself in/out. DIdn't have much trouble with road users, mostly polite and patient, except for one woman who clamied there was a taffic jam - turned out to be 1 neighbour who cheerfully turned round and went the other way...I managed to be polite to the sour faced b...h and resisted dropping the bucket on her toes...
Yeterday hovered between 26 and 28 degrees out of the cab - today may be hotter but at least I shall not be sitting in a mobile glasshouse.
Off to the builder's merchant for cement - need to cast the first part of the water defences and hopefully remedy a nasty trip hazzard by the wood shed.The concreting it going to be a long job - I am aiming for a sq metre a day. Has a plague decimated the working men of Britain? Didn't anticipate spending my retirement on DIY and ultra strong painkillers!
Hope everyone is enjoying seeing the sun and has a good day.
Thank you for sharing . LovelyVery unlike me to be consistent but I got another 9.3 this morning again.
I am OK with that as playing it safe still. There was a dip overnight probably down to about 6 and then came back up so a bit of DP. It is however resisting coming down this morning despite 4u of Fiasp and no breakfast, so I am guessing a very strong DP/FOTF today for some reason.
Thought you might like to see our pictures from the show on Saturday....
