Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning fine forum folks!
6.3 reading for me and hoping it reflects in my HbA1c test on the 12th.

Congrats on your HS @Martin.A and @ColinUK
Great photos @zippyjojo and @eggyg
Glad to hear you are feeling better @@grannylorraine. Hope you get the heating in your caravan sorted @TinaD

It's sunny but quite a lot of cloud and a fresh breeze again. Deciding whether to put some washing on and if it will dry before the rain.
Other than that we are hoping to see the planes from the BBMF flying today as they will be taking part in the VE celebrations.
Have a nice if slight chilly bank holiday Monday. Rumour has it warm weather will return later this week. (Fingers crossed emoji)
 
Morning all. Woke to high 9s this morning. Nothing planned. Hubby is working 10-1 so i may get the ironing done while he's out.

@zippyjojo beautiful photos from Svalbard.

@eggyg gorgeous photos, such white sand!

@Grannylorraine glad you're feeling better.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning 8.9 today


Whatever everyone’s plans are for today have a great bank holiday Monday.
 
Morning everyone. A happy 5.0 for me on this grey cloudy day, looks like summer has gone for the time being.

Have a great day folks and stay well.
 
Morning all - it's sunny and blue sky, but there's a breeze and it's not forecast to get warmer than 12deg.

5.9 this morning which I am happy with.

Not sure what I am doing today. Probably going for a walk with my friend. Have lots of bedding plants to put in our tubs and pots, but don't know if it's too soon and I should leave them in the little plastic greenhouse where they are.

Congratulations to @Martin.A and @ColinUK on your HSs.
@TinaD hope you can get the heating working soon
Glad to hear @Grannylorraine is feeling better
Absolutely fabulous photos @eggyg and @zippyjojo

Take care all!

I have not put my fuchsias or cosmos outside yet. Too cold in Lincolnshire and nighttime temperature is still around 5 degC
Living in the far west of Cornwall I am sure you will be putting your plants out before me.

I'm sure I will, generally it's warmer here, temperature overnight is forecast to be 11degC, but it's also wetter! Quite often when it's sunny everywhere, it's grey here.
 
4.7 today for me.

Well, you couldn’t write it! Yesterday we planned a trip around some of the local coastline here then got a call to say that my wife’s aunt’s son (who was taking part in the Belfast marathon) had collapsed and had a heart attack! So we quickly diverted to the hospital in Belfast and saw him after he had a stent fitted and was looking better. Apparently he collapsed in front of a cardiac nurse in the crowd who knew exactly what to do! The paramedics had to restart his heart twice but he seems on the road to recovery now. After some lunch today we’re going back to Belfast (he’s not yet stable enough to be transferred to the local hospital here in Derry) for visiting.

So not the relaxing trip we had hoped for, but at least we were in the right place and able to help my wife’s aunt’s son get to him quickly.

Congratulations @Martin.A and @ColinUK on your HSs today!
Lovely photos @zippyjojo and @eggyg!

Have a good day everyone!
 
8.2 this a.m. on a somewhat overcast day with a strong breeze, although that has calmed somewhat.
My BGs where steady 6/7 through the night with no alarms. TiR 80% on the rise.
We've been watching the celebration of VE day 80 years on on the beeb most of the day thus far.

It's been cold in the house today, so sitting in our housecoats over our clothes, too tight to put on the fire.

Finally worked out the feeling of excitement/panic in my chest - too much caffeine, so having to reduce the sheer amount of strong coffee I consume in the morning, having decaf for the rest of the day. Oh dear getting like my brother.

Sorry your wife’s aunt’s son has had a heart attack @Eternal422 , hope he recovers very soon after his stay in the hospital.

Congratulations to @Martin.A and @ColinUK on your HSs today!

Great photos @eggyg & @zippyjojo loved to see them.

Enjoy your Bank Holiday Monday everyone 🙂
 
Congratulations @Pam123 on you HS!
