Group 7-day waking average?

Well done AJLang. 🙂

22 for me crack of dawn and really really meant to start liquid diet today after that but family came for the day as having their damp course done and so ending up pigging out as usual and still pigging now when on my own. If they ever get me into the surgery I'll be on drugs for sure. :( Will start tomorrow, famous last words, but family are here again, damp will be a fortnight at least.
 
I’m awake and with a 5.3 today. Going to head back to bed for more zzzz though methinks. Catch up with you all later 🙂
 
it's a 5.6 from me this morning , Hope you all have the best day possible today .
 
4.2 this morning, so up and about and a bit of DP brought me back to 5.5 so now time for breakfast.

A bit cloudy at present but looks like it will clear to another fabulous day.
Enjoy yourselves (and @KARNAK stop attacking your house. I hope you get sorted)
 
Morning all,
A 6.1 this morning and as our virtual cruise nears its end we find ourselves in Kotor Montenegro! A place with much charm and legend as we pull into the harbour and swing round, it looks amazing. Trying to fit a lot in today so a morning tour around the sights of the town and an afternoon visit to 'our lady of the rocks' .
This famous chapel was build it was said by local sailors.
Apparently, the story goes back to July 1452 when two sailors were returning home, one with a badly injured leg. As they were passing a rocky outcrop, something caught their eye, its was an icon of the Virgin Mary and Child which they took home.
The following day the sailors leg was miraculously healed! They vowed to build a church where they found the icon but it wasn't big enough so each trip, all the sailors would bring back boat-loads of rocks and 32 years later they had built the chapel there today! Amazing!!
Must remember to wear appropriate clothing as I don't want to upset the locals. Will be 32 degrees today at midday. Phew!
Blessings Snowwy

Morning all. A very nice and normal, 6.3. Pouring down here, typical when I’m venturing into town for the first time in weeks. Need/ want a new navy plain tee, as you do. Splashed mine with grease whilst pan frying a chicken breast, it now looks terrible, the tee shirt not the chicken! Also need some new makeup, all three lip pencils have finished at the same time! First world problems I know, but you CAN’T put lippy on without lining your lips first. Possibly may go into Asda! 😱 My first large supermarket since before lockdown. That’s not important though it’s only for food! 😉 Have a fab, hopefully dry day, wherever you are.🙂

What a beautiful church, I’m not religious in the slightest but I love visiting churches and cathedrals.

Oh me too. I can’t wait to go down to St Davids again, the cathedral is beautiful - once the Covid dust has settled! I might even take a sketch book and do some rubbish scribbles LOL.

Hubby was bouncing all over the sofa @Anitram! Go Swansea!!!
 
Morning all, 5.7 here. Greatly daring, planning a trip to London today. We love just wandering round different bits.Today we are planning to hunt out some of the Wren churches, built after the Great Fire along with St. Paul’s. They are all hidden amongst the modern city tower blocks these days, and when I lived and worked in London I never really noticed them.
 
Morning all and 7.3 for me. Other side if the room 9.3 with a vertical up arrow. Post cat feeding fingerprick a more respectable 6.7

Now is it general waste or recycling today? Let's see what the rest of the street have put out.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Congrats on the HS @AJLang . @Snowwy - am so enjoying the cruise, what a shame it is coming to its end, you will have to go again so we can enjoy more 🙂 @KARNAK😱😱
What a busy week it has been for me at work, can’t tell you how much work there is. Our drs are so nice and appreciative though. They have been trying to pass certain things to the receptionists rather than us with not very good results, not the receptionists fault as they have no idea about the pathways for referrals. It has caused more work.
Had my eye test on Monday. Eyes have changed a bit but not too much. Probably should have new glasses as have had these 5 years and I need varifocals in my sunglasses really. Got a quote using two pairs of frames that were £80 and £50. 25% off second pair and 50% off 1st pair- came to £502!! No designer frames for me then unless I want to take out a mortgage. Also told I have blepheritis.

Dr has given me test strips for the second time when I ordered my medication but I’m a bit naughty because I know at the moment they are so busy that they are just signing the requests rather than checking them all. Pharmacist did a medication review when I collected them and suggested I contact the GP as my tremor is getting worse and affecting my left arm now rather than just my hand.

Off to have a bath now and will put some things in a bag, dog in the car (at long last she is back to normal) and back down to the caravan until Sunday, hubby will join me tomorrow evening.
That’s about my news for the week. Have a good day one and all.

Edit: forgot to put my reading - 6.7 doh🙄
 
Morning

Well it's a 7.3 for me this morning, very tired as haven't slept a wink due to being up all night with a dodgy tummy, well that'll be the Perindopril being missed tonight as not supposed to take it in such cases 🙄 feel miserable and the cold damp weather is just adding to it

Hope you all have a much better day folks
xx

Oh very daring! Enjoy the churches. We quite often only appreciate things as we get older. I wouldn’t have set foot in a church when I was younger unless it was for a wedding/ funeral etc.
