My usual 5.8 - was a little concerned as I had a meal out last night and had mushroom stuffed with stilton, cranberries and walnuts followed by king prawn marsala with rice (about 2 tblespns) and a small naan and I enjoyed every mouthful! Didn't have the courage to test last night though!!!

Aaawww. Such a shame, because these are the times we need to test. It may not have been nearly as bad as you think, but you'll never know. Knowledge is power! I found if I told myself to expect a big number, it usually wasn't too terrible, because I wasn't expecting a 4 or 5. (The mind is a funny old thing.)

Did you feel like you were high, or do you have no perception of your levels?

Hi carb Foods
4.9 this morning, just been watching pup doing acrobatics, jumping to ~5feet up to grab big fat snowflakes (almost as much fun as watching a child play in the snow:))

A flat 4 for me this morning. Having been 3.7 after dinner and on going to bed, my liver has obviously been in play. I'm happy to exercise my liver and cycle it's glucose stores.

Like everywhere else, it's jolly cold here this morning, although we have no snow.

Today, I must have a good day in my workshop, or I'll be running short of time. 9 sleeps, plus 1 hotel sleep. :D:D:D:D

I love your gifs in your signature, Fergus. Where did you find them?

Hi to all the poorly people still suffering from bugs. If you have a cough try Broncho Stop. My DN told me about it. All natural and no sugar. I've tried a lot of cough remedies in my time but this stuff is fantastic! Works really well :)
Its made from marshmallow root
