Morning all. Couldn’t access the forum yesterday morning so just catching up. 5.3 yesterday but then BG went down all morning rather than up, so all good.

@Freema getting back in the groove!

@Bubbsie gorgeous dog.

4.6 today and a beautiful sky in London.


thanks for your encouragement dear Goonergal ... it seems that my liver already has coped with my hepatitis vaccine , which I guess was the reason for my fives the last few days... I had it late monday..

Despite having had a splendid Szechuan banquet yesterday, walk around the National Portrait Gallery and a wine tasting in the evening.......100 wines, Madam was 2.7 this morning.
Jelly beans and a biscuit and 15mins later she was back with 4.4, now 7.6. A bean too far me thinks!!
50 bulbs to do this afternoon. Have a lovely weekend

Celeriac is a godsend isn’t it? Try celeriac dauphinoise if you haven’t already - heavenly.

R-ALA is supposed to be good for sciatic pain my wife has been taking some of mine in the mornings and it has eased the pain quite a bit she says.
