What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

[HarryBeau]

I wont be doing another experiment quite as extreme as that. Not fair on my dads army inside. They must be exhausted!!!

Debs how could you do that to us...that sounds like an orgy of feasting I have had pretty much the same experiences/results with my BG after taking copious amounts of Lemsip Max Beehams Cough & Cold Cure & Jakemanns Throat & Chest Lozenges...am I bitter/envious...yes of course particularly about the chicken & chorizo kebab ( I'd kill for one right now).

 

[HarryBeau]

is a big difference between a crumpet and a pikelet

I don't care about the differences...I want one now with lashings of butter & jam...or cream cheese...or marmite...or more butter.

Is whipping cream a common thing in supermarkets..?
google says..Double cream is the British term for heavy or whipping cream in the United States, but it is a little thicker than our whipping cream. It contains about 48% butterfat...confewzed

Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and all who worship at the alter of National Bin Day, for ecumenical fairness I must add other deities are available like veganism and vegetarianism, available from all good retailers. I, myself and my other me's vary from paganism to pastafarianism depending on which height the gulf stream is at.

Well this morning a straight 8, I was expecting a number in this region due to a snack of mousetrap, warnings the spring is a bit indigestible.

I have no idea what your plans are for today, but whatever please enjoy. Those that are under the weather, stop it now or at least take precautions. Hehehe.

My bins (Leafy Bin Garden and Blimy Bin Laden) out at the crack of dawn to stand in homage to the lesser god Steamy Bin Waggon and for the ceremony of the lift and drop. This is the last day this year for Leafy Bin Garden. It will now hibernate until the spring as it is part bear and part tortoise (not to be confused with part bare and part porpoise).

I think I forgot to post my fbs. 5.2 this morning and then 4.4 before dinner.

All the stuff came today for my new broadband. Tomorrow we will be switched over to the new provider - sometime before 12pm. Hopefully all will go smoothly.

 

[SaskiaKC]

I've just started reading a novel that mentions a couple who have abandoned London for the wilds of Surrey having 'swapped urban amenities for rural bliss.' Interesting timing for reading this book!

Mmh. Not to worry you, but that's how Most Zombie Apocalypse stories start...:***:

Btw, If we are talking ads that MIGHT make ya buy, Amazon singing boxes IS the one.

Deep in the wilds of Surrey

Zombie Apocalypse

and Amazon singing boxes

Eeeeeeeeeeeekkkk!!!!

But fortunately ...

This story involves a cat called Clovis

and a dog called Talisker

and a barbarian of ill repute

...

and if Clovis can't rule out the Zombie Apocalypse

and the barbarian can't freeze them out

Talisker will put them to sleep right back where they belong

good afternoon all

was 4.6 this morning

thankfully not so cold today
We've been doing a couple of small jobs in the house today though we have been out for a walk

Started shortening a pair of curtains earlier which is a bit of a job since they are lined. I admit I have a list of small jobs I had good intentions on getting done before now but which have ended up waiting for darker nights/colder weather to get done

Hope your day is treating you well

There is one thing I have yet to try if I ever have the temerity to eat a crumpet again is an eggy crumpet like eggy bread but done with a crumpet I didn't think you could fry a crumpet but it seems you can.

Morning All. Another disappointing 6.4 today. Woke late after another horrible nightmare. Bit stressed in the last week over old family problem which I managed to park over weekend when son and GF here. Supper last night was an aubergine curry side from a meal deal which I had with fried mushrooms. My HBA1c is due before Christmas so I better start putting in the effort. @DJC3 terrific score have only had a 4 once but defo omelette tonight.
@JohnEGreen hope you are ok. @Muddy Cyclist hope the sciatica improves pronto, horrible thing. @dunelm lovely to have a new baby in the family for Christmas. @HarryBeau hope you start to feel better glad you have a quiet day.
Have a good Wednesday everyone. Stay well, stay safe.

Sorry to hear about your family problem, I wonder if that’s what triggered the nightmare? Not surprising your fbg was a bit higher than normal, especially after your hectic weekend. I hope things resolve themselves soon.
