    Nice Thought but Inappropriate....

    My mother, who has been diabetic for many years, sent me some Thornton's toffee, fudge and caramel despite knowing that I have never been particularly fond of sweets, even when I was a child! Hey ho!

    Morning all, a fairly respectable 5.6 @ a totally unrespectable 04.29 this morning. Dreadful night! I know why: going to visit M-i-L later!!!

    Hi All, @ianpspurs @Keesha @Goonergal @DJC3 Thank you for your kind comments. 5.4 was the score on the prickometer at 05.54. I wonder what it would have been 10 minutes earlier;)

    Thanks: I'm happy about it (and happy it's done for another year!); it's always a worry, even when you know you've been doing the right things!
