Bullies, discrimination of any kind, bad manners, parents who let their kids run amok & spoil things for everyone else, unkind spiteful people, being a clumsy clod, toast crumbs in the bed, cold feet!!

Dislikes
Being so totally lazy. The thought of having any of my body chopped off or going blind - incentive enough to make the changes I need to prevent that, even if I have to start {gasp} exercising.
Any form of animal cruelty or abuse. Globalisation, americanisation and homogenisation of everything from our high streets to our regional dialects. Any form of injustice.

5.6 this morning after getting a 4.4 at around 10:00 last night. We had Bob Geldorf and the Boomtown Rats playing at the local music festival yesterday until midnight and he was dreadful.

First "self test" it was 7.8 this morning - I've been diagnosed less than a week - my HbA1C was 106 and my blood sugar 17.9 on 20th August - so although the fasting level is higher than it should be - compared to my previous two blood tests - I am much happier with this - and can see there are some shining examples here which have performed miracles in the sugar and weight departments - giving me a real incentive to kick myself into shape
