Beautiful day in Adelaide, a gloaming evening now settling in.
BSLs good all day and I am finally getting the hang of managing exercise on this lower carb diet.
Beginning: (Walking only, running sends the BSLs up too far) Leave basal as is, no carb loading beforehand as the adrenaline seems to send the BSL a bit anyway (but only gets to 7 mmol/l so far), bolus a tad if I have a coffee partway and be prepared to drop the basal 15% for 2 hours (starting at 5 hours after the middle part of the exercise period) and then drop basal 10% overnight. That's the current theory, ? how many variations to go ??
Kite parts all glued and glue nearly cured. Tomorrow is 'dress rehearsal' and final alterations before the Sunday arvo kite fly.
So many more designs on the drawing board. Promise you all a picture !!
Purchased a wok today. This will help with the vegetable cooking. Wok needs to be seasoned ? canola oil, ? lard. Not keen on peanut oil 'cos some people have severe allergies. Only catch is I purchased the wok, I do the cooking.
Well, there are worse fates in life !! :):):)
 
Good morning friends
Lunch out today
It’s Friday so it’s fish

Fish chips mushy peas at the ‘Boot and Shoe’ pub in Greystoke mmmmmmmmm can’t wait mmmmmmmmm

Hi @Jaylee, have you tried some surgical spirit on cotton wool to remove the sticky stuff.?
It might be kinder on your tender skin than alkaline soap and an abrasive flannel !!
But not fit for consumption !!
In desperation there is also whiskey, um for adhesive removal --- what did you think I meant !!!! !!

Lol, I have some "Sticky stuff remover" in the garage which is great for removing residue from 3M tape pads. When I removed non essential Jap gadgetry from my van like a NTC card reader for toll roads... & the little speaker stuck to the windscreen telling me in Japanese to insert a valid card, every time I started the vehicle..

I haven't used surgical spirit since my glass syringe days..
I'm all out of whiskey. But I do have vodka! :)

Um, vodka it is then. We have stuff here in Oz called 'Zoff'. looks pretty potent. Have not resorted to it yet !!

@karen8967 . How sad a situation to find yourself in.
Good evening to you all.
The weekend starts now. Time to chill out and enjoy family time.
Work has been s**t for me and my mate at work. 41 yrs experience between us and still people refuse to listen to what we say.
Logged on early this morning and a thread was running by a new and very regular poster. Basically planning to set up a business aimed at supplying LCHF foodstuffs. Seems to have vanished, not sure if I was dreaming it now.:)
Anyone else spot it?

Yes I saw it, but when I returned it had,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, disappeared/been removed.
 
The pork pie had a small amount of jelly. Was scrumptious! Only usually have one at Christmas, but lots going on at moment causing a bit of worry so decided a treat was in order. Although we have had 4 seasons in the last few hours here up North managed not to put my hat on @Robinredbreast
