over selling.... oh so many things are enthusiastically oversold
Morning all, gone back to living in England again here with single digit temps, grey skies and a dampness in the air which isn't quite rain but requires a waterproof to go out. 5.2 on the sugar front though . This is pleasing to me as I've had a booze free week and I've never been entirely sure how red wine affects my numbers. I've just started a new regime of adding vitamin K2 and D3 to my diet, I'm keeping a slightly better food/ number diary to see if I cant make a little more sense of this. Have a great week end all, if you possibly can ....

Morning all. 5.7 for me today snap @trick60

So glad you had a good sleep last night @Goonergal I wonder if anyone else from your football team was ill?

@OrsonKart I loved your emergency tins of sardines!

@karen8967 hope the interview goes well, is it for a job?

We are off to borrow a spaniel puppy in a minute - my daughter signed up with ‘borrow my dog’ which connects people who own dogs but need help walking them, and those who miss walking a dog. She has 2 regulars, Sidney is completely bonkers but adorable so it’ll be a busy day.

Once again quality journalism and analysis here from the Testing Times (full access digital edition). Readers will note we listened to your comments and the World of jumpers feature has been dropped. Our popular where to eat out this weekend section has returned Due to illness the sports section will be a little truncated today but we have included a dog walking section New this weekend is a DIY section. This week we focus on Wood Burner repairs :angelic:.
Edit: As many of you BTL have spotted the updated international edition will be online later.

Good morning all
4.9 this morning
Work on agenda for me this weekend as keen to free up some time to support my mum as needed. Also much prefer to work when weather poor - can’t abide being indoors when sun shining!
Hope everyone has a good weekend and enjoys various outings and activities hope weather not as poor as forecasted

I can imagine, scary but exciting at the same time. Hope it all goes well for you.
