Because that’s true by volume. Obviously a pound of fat weighs the same as a pound of anything else though!

Morning up at Sparrows and an 8 for me after a bit of a rise from 6 overnight but generally within range.
Much fresher day and going for walk later on so will be better conditions and a car boot to boot this morning.
Enjoy your Sunday.

In honour of the Strictly scandals I got a Len this morning.
Yesterday afternoon I saw Slave Play. Absolutely phenomenal. Wasn’t sure what to expect but not only is it hugely enjoyable it’s also hugely uncomfortable and challenging. I needed to sit on the park for a couple of hours afterwards and decompress.
I’m tempted to see it again.

Morning all.6.4 on this much cooler day.
Home from Chester. We popped to Crosby on the way home, slight diversion but was so worth it. We’ve wanted to see Antony Gormley’s sculptures for a long time. The simplicity of it all. Just a, naked, man staring out to sea. I could stand and stare out to sea all day every day, I’d probably have my clothes on though! Spent a couple of hours there before heading home.
Today is washing day. After torrential rain last night, saved us having to water the garden, today is supposed to be dry with sunny intervals. Not as hot as the last few days though, thank goodness. Other than laundry, maybe a short walk and a bit of garden maintenance. Got a quiet week until Friday so will make the most of it. School’s out now for six weeks so quiet times will be few and far between, throw a new baby in the mix, due three weeks today, and it will probably be September before we get any peace!
Have a great day.

Good morning everyone
BG 4.9
Today they will announce the new pastor position has been accepted at our church (present pastor is retiring).
Hopefully a walk later on.
I am presently working on words for a new song, an absolutely fascinating process, totally absorbing.
Have a great day today whatever you are doing

A 4.8 for me this morning. Still battling with Microsoft to get my PC back the way I want it to be.

Good morning! Pleased with a 7.7 after a yo-yo 15 hours. I started thinking the sensor was faulty but finger pricks tended to agree!
Wall to wall grey, and slightly cooler!

Bit dull and grey out there when I opened the curtains but sun's broken through and it looks like we're in for a decent day. Hope so as I have 3 machine loads of laundry to get out on the line, and that's before the Sunday towel change.
Wife and I had a spur-of-the-moment day out yesterday with a trip to Wallingford. She likes to browse antique shops and Wallingford has a couple of good ones. Found a nice cafe for lunch and a cosy Italian coffee shop later before we headed home. Of course, all my carb counting went out the window, as it does when we eat out, so no idea how I did for carbs yesterday, but I must have done OK as I got 5.1 when I tested this morning.
Looks like we've had the last raspberries from our garden, and our blackberry bush isn't ready to give us anything yet, but we have lots of blackberries growing wild where we are and I picked a punnet's worth yesterday evening. Looking forward to having some for breakfast and I suspect there'll be an apple & blackberry crumble in the oven later, not that I'll be having any of it.
Hope everyone enjoys their Sunday.

Morning
7.1 and still no meds, but that is because I didn’t feel well yesterday so didn’t go and collect them. Hubby is going to collect them today on his way home from work. Off to the seaside today, well Southend to meet my friend who lives there. Only takes 30 mins on the train, actually takes me as long to walk to the station.

Good morning 5.6 today
Right now relaxing in garden with cup of tea
gave a tree (which is in a neighbours garden) a good cut back yesterday, as it was stopping the light and overhanging, plus birds liked to congregate in it and leave their mess right where I’m sat now.
My wife is currently trying to work out where the slugs are coming from
as it seems there are quite a few.
Before we moved we never had any garden, so were growing a few vegetables and fruit trees / bushes
Have a smashing Sunday everyone 😎

Morning all and 8.6 for me. I blame a late fish supper.
Threatened storms didn't arrive in this part of the world and the steam rally was most enjoyable.
A young sparrow hawk has just had it's breakfast in the front garden. Just a few feathers left.
Shopping to do and I must get some clarinet practice in.
Have a good day everyone.
