    Type 1 & Type 2 and this Forum

    Sad. I too will sometimes post on a thread because I think it could do with more attention, or because I've found something it that interests me and I'd like to be able to find it again. A "them and us" attitude is unhelpful and unfair. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Anything slimy? - take a look in the toys r us stocking filler/party favour section? - I had a little spinning top once that lit...

    Christmas

    - friendship bracelets are easy to make and only need a few lengths of coloured thread or wool. - don't know if you have a craft shop near you? My local Hobby Craft sells pick and mix beads, a beaker full for three or four pounds. - one of those and some elastic and she has days worth of things...

    Christmas

    How about one with pictures? Or one of those ones with a pocket or a draw for each day, with a tiny toy, or a bracelet or something to make in each one? Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Fruit fruit fruit!

    It's weird how differently people react. Strawberries, - one of the lower sugar fruits, send me so high so fast that I'm asleep within half hour of eating them, - after the visual disturbance and palpitations! Whereas sometimes my BG keeps climbing in the morning after a carb free breakfast, (...

    is it is just me?

    Can't cheat. :( Got my Hb - thingy in January. :( Having said that, throat hurts so much that even the thought of eating makes me feel sick. - Got a row off the doctor today for losing weight too fast - which is what happens when you stop eating- who knew?!?! Anyway, yes, I agree. The board is...

    Sandals.....

    My big, tall, handsome, very "on trend" brother wears (long) shorts and wellies all the time. - is that in the same league as socks and sandals? - he's got a bald line on his hairy legs where his wellies have rubbed the hair off. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Sick :(

    Still sick. Finally saw a doctor who took the trouble to read my notes. Now have an ear infection on top of the tonsillitis. On double strength, big gun antibiotics, new heavy duty painkillers, layered with nurophen. I hurt. It REALLY hurts to play! :( Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Black Friday!

    Don't know how old you are either scapegoat. I'm 42. I guess you could say that I've been practically, if not officially tee total since my late 20's, when I started needing to drive every day. Going out on Black Friday can be about drinking, yes, but it doesn't need to be. - There's another...

    License revoked

    Don't know where you live, but it used to be that you could walk stuff like that through the DVLA yourself. It has changed a bit in recent years. The tax etc bit is on a different site now. - the DVLA is in Morriston, Swansea. Don't know if it's still possible. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Christmas...

    There's a house on my weekly flight path. It's so famous in the area that it's part of a bus tour! The entire house, garage and garden are completely covered I lights. There is a life sized illuminated nativity scene, complete with animals, set up on the drive way and a recording of choral...

    Black Friday!

    Oh it seriously is! I don't do the drinking end of Black Friday. I've played taxi and seen the carnage. Same with New Years Eve. Until I left London, I usually had a gig, so drinking was out. The last few years, coz term breaks up so close to Christmas, I'm usually way too busy. I went out...
