    incident with diabeties and volunteering :(

    yeah. I’ve always known it can make it seem odd. The couple of times I have had it happen before at the park I’ve been able to sort it out . That’s how I know it can make you irratable and annoyed as I got annoyed verbally at a meerkat once and I knew that wasn’t like me at all. Friday was...

    It’s hardly ever warm in England and yes lantus is what I use just before bedtime, I use lantus and novo rapid. My carb ratio is 1:3 for breakfast and 1:7 lunch, supper and any snacks, , so perhaps it was my body compensating for the activity yesterday since I volunteer at an animal park...

    I never recongnize my hypos when I’m volunteering? Don’t known why?

    , I’m half Dutch, but I don’t remember them calling trousers pants. We’re not allowed to leave things outside due to health and safety reasons especially as a lot of visitors are young kids and they could trip over. Even with wheel barrows we have to leave them inside the enclosure not outside...

    Our yards kitchen, the distance really depends which animal your with, sometimes it takes 10-15 mins, other times 5 mins. Thing is the staff room (similar distance to the yard) also gets locked when the team aren’t on their breaks. We pretty much have a 30 min break at 10.15am and an hour...

So I dunno if...

    Dog breed game

    I thought to make this game about dog breeds as there’s a tone of dogs breeds. The first person has to think of a dog and then the next starts with the last letter of the name as the next dog breed. example: 1st person= basset hound 2nd person= Doberman so let’s start with Chihuahua
