Group 7-day waking average?

[Northerner]

Good morning 🙂 5.3 for me today 🙂

 

[eggyg]

Morning all,
A 6.1 this morning... interesting how things work out, I was talking with a friend yesterday morning discussing how so many appointments have been cancelled in recent times and then I get a txt from the surgery in the afternoon asking me to contact them for my HbA1c test! Spooky!
In other news and for those stowing away on my 'Silver Fox' virtual cruise we are on day 8 and back in Corfu town having completed the southerly loop of our 15 day cruise. The weather will be 31 degrees at mid-day and I think a shopping trip is due with perhaps a trip to Pontikonisi or 'Mouse Island' which is a lovely off the beaten track place to chill!
@ColinUK asked yesterday about the midnight buffet...
The answer is it's amazing!!! and totally carb free well 'virtually'
Enjoy the photos and don't eat too much, leave some for me!

Ahh! Corfu, my first Greek Island, July 1983. 18-30 holiday. It was quite tame to be honest but I did come home pregnant! By Mr Eggy of course! 🙂

 

[ColinUK]

Guten Morgan. @ColinUK I’ll play Klop to your René! Are you rehearsing for ‘Ello ‘Ello? A very nice round sechs for me. I got a very mediocre O level in French but managed to translate your post, I enjoyed German more, got a quite good CSE in that! All those genders, Der Die Das etc. And nouns beginning with capital letters! Confused? Yep!
Not up to much today, a little bit shopping, I should have been getting a Tesco Click and Collect today but cancelled it to try and force myself to go into a big supermarket. It hasn’t happened yet, been in Aldi once or twice, CoOp and M&S. So I’ve ended up getting bits and bobs every few days. I’m regretting it now!
Have a fab Friday. Auf Wiedersehen! Pet!😛

I’m just going to leave this here with no comment...

Guten jour mes Freunde 5.6 für moi.

Have a multilingual day everyone.

Morning

Well check Facebook this morning and see my grandad was out at the pub last night, cuddling the weirdos of the nation, not happy as social distancing is still supposed to be adhered to and he's coming down here again, he has no thought for anyone but himself!

Anyways at 5:57am it was another 5.2 for me but by 6:50am and pre breakfast it was a 5.1 so not quite the same pattern as yesterday

Have a nice day and stay safe folks

Buongiorno tutti, 5.7 per me oggi! (and that’s the most Italian I can muster apart from being able to order 'due campari per favore')

That made me laugh. They are very literal as well, their words are enormous! 😛

My german teacher once demonstrated the use of prepositions at the end of a sentence, which we shouldn’t do in English (but do) but which is correct in German,with the following sentence.
What did you bring the book I didn’t want to be read to out of up for?

 

[MeeTooTeeTo]

6.2 for me today. 🙂
Stay safe and well.

[Robin]

On Monday evening he got notified that the result was negative, which was a great relief, and he was allowed to rejoin the family after 5 whole days in isolation.

I thought the point of the 14 day isolation was that you can develop Covid up to 14 days after exposure, so a test after a couple of days might not show positive as it hadn’t develped yet? Gov guidelines say do 14 days whatever.

[Robin]

Well this is what the NHS told him:-

Martin

Isn't that for when you’ve been having symptoms but are feeling better?
Otherwise, it sounds like the NHS aren’t following their own guidance! (not that it would surprise me)

How to avoid catching and spreading COVID-19 infection.

Read NHS advice about how to reduce your risk of catching and spreading COVID-19 infection, and ease your symptoms at home.

Good morning 6.3 on a glorious day 26.C at the moment.🙂

Crawled to a bbq yesterday via taxi 105.F in the garden glad I wore my hat/Trilby.🙂
Not up to much today no doubt get a call from the lads, you coming out or what?😎

Congratulations on another HS @Kaylz.🙂

Nice to see you posting again Martin aka @Anitram,🙂 also congratulations on your HS.🙂

@SueEK its just part of having Osteoporosis but thankyou for your concern.🙂

@Flower yes I have crutches but prefer not to use them, taxi everywhere for me.😉

Have a lovely day folks, take care stay safe.🙂

 

[Robin]

Presumably the test would detect the presence of the virus even if it was incubating?

Martin

I think it would detect it a couple of days before symptoms showed, because that’s when you can spread it, but I don’t know about earlier. A quick Google didn’t throw anything useful up. I’d have thought it may not show in the early stages, because you need sufficient for the virus present in the nose and tonsils to show up on the test. Otherwise, they could make the rule that if you’ve been in contact, get a test and if it’s clear you’re good to go. But that’s not what they’re saying.
The whole thing is a minefield. When we had the Zoom 'meet' last Sunday, the question of the rules on socialising came up, and it took all our collective heads to piece together what was allowed and what not ( and that was just for England, we didn’t get started on Wales, Scotland and NI!)
But these guidelines specifically say if you’ve tested negative, you still have to isolate for 14 days if you were contacted by test and trace,

COVID-19 testing

Find out about COVID-19 rapid lateral flow tests, including who can get them for free on the NHS, how to do the test, and what your result means.

www.nhs.uk

 

[Robin]

So what this says is that you don't need to self-isolate if your test is negative, as long as you feel well. 11 days on and he's still feeling perfectly normal.

Martin

Unless you’ve been told to isolate by Test and Trace. Which does sound a bit draconian, when contrasted with the other rules for what to do if you’ve shown symptoms. And the double negative in the instructions doesn’t help with the interpretation.ie, 'You do not need to self isolate....as long as you were not told to self-isolate by Test and Trace'
Quote
A negative result means the test did not find coronavirus.

You do not need to self-isolate if your test is negative, as long as:

• everyone you live with who has symptoms tests negative
• everyone in your support bubble who has symptoms tests negative
• you were not told to self-isolate for 14 days by NHS Test and Trace – if you were, see what to do if you've been told you've been in contact with someone who has coronavirus

(However, as you say, he’d probably have got it by now if he was going to)

😳 Little Miss Forgetful again today! 🙄😳 BUT, DA DA DA DA DA DA! The 3rd to get a HS of 10:47 BS 5.2! 😛😎😉 Congrats go to my other 2 fellow HS achievers today, @Anitram & @Kaylz 😎😛😉

Too late now, after midday, to say a morning greeting so, I’m going Australian again, & wish you all a G’day mate! 🙄 Have a Wonderful Day! 😉

You CAN ignore the rest, if you want; I won’t know? 🙄😉

Just had midday meds after a late brunch, don’t think I’ll eat lunch today, but, WILL eat dinner later!🙄 Still too early to test after eating yet! Was busy trying to qualify in Q2, the last chance to do so, this morning & got to hole 6 but, more on that later. Decided to try my very 1st. Tournament on Pro, instead of Rookie, & made a right dog’s dinner of it yesterday: Rookie Tournament’s are from the front tee; Pro is from further back on the middle tee & it makes a HUGE difference!😱 I got 2 Eagles on 2 of the par 5’s but, dropped 3 Birdies on par 3’s & 4’s for, pretty much, the bottom on -7! Only my very 1st tournament qualifying round was worst on -5 but, I got through before failing the next opening round! THAT will have to do as there’s no stream of tears emoji but, there IS this one😳

WELL, I girded my loins, as it were, & was brave enough to go Pro again & I Eagled the 1st. par 5, again as I did yesterday, then, thanks to yesterday’s experience, didn’t drop any Birdies AND on hole 6, the 2nd. par 5 I did 1 better & got an Albatross: my 13th. overall & WHAT a time to do it; unlucky number fir some but, it seems, it’s lucky for me, this time!😱😛😎😉 Here it is:-

Albatross Q2 The Oasis 9 Hole Cup on 17/07/20 par 5 The Oasis 5b 1st. Time on Pro:-

Now still have 3 holes to finish &, hopefully, without dropping any Birdies, I can make it? 🙄

The last 2 holes, a par 4 & a par 5, ARE the most difficult holes though & I messed both up yesterday: dropped my last Birdie on par 4 hole 8; would have not only dropped an Eagle but, even a Birdie too on par 5 hole 9 if opponent hadn’t got his Eagle in as you automatically get 1 shot more than your opponent if you don’t draw & get your ball in too! Sometimes that CAN be a good thing: why some opponents say thanks when they’re beaten by an Albatross as it guarantees them getting an Eagle they probably wouldn’t have gotten if they messed up: I JUST know I would have gotten another HORRIDLY EMBARRASSING PAR ON A PAR 5 otherwise!😱😳

Here’s hoping I can finish with 3 Birdies: that’s enough & greedy to try for a last Eagle on last hole that got me into trouble yesterday; went for it as I knew I probably wouldn’t make it with 3 dropped Birdies already! Fingers crossed emoji &😱 Eek! Nervously anxious!🙄

Oh! Almost forgot! I know I’ve posted this twice before but, can’t resist posting it again:-

Shalom everyone!
5.7 for me this morning and a lovely day of waiting in for a courier delivery. I’ve been given an expected time of “between 8am and 22:00hrs” and have been informed “our couriers will not contact you to tell you when they’re getting near”.
So it looks like a day of pottering around, a little Netflix, a little Golf Clash and a lot of waiting. I might even vacuum the cat.

Morning All,

My Reading for today is 5.5 with a weekly average of 6.1 so it looks like I'm back in the 6's for my weekly average even if only just

 

[miguel81]

Morning - 3.6

 

[Snowwy]

Morning all,
An unusual 6.5 this morning, can't think why?
Unless it was the 'virtual' midnight buffet yesterday.
So I now have an appointment for Diabetes blood test on the 30th, it will be interesting to see how much my HbA1c has come down?
Today our 'virtual cruise' is a 'sea day' as we take to the high seas sailing North up the Adriatic. So we are grabbing a sunbed later and just chillin' May even go for a swim! For now though, a 5 mile run before it gets too warm!

Blessings Snowwy
