I saw Ed Gamble on tv a couple of nights ago, he was funny and I enjoyed watching him, some people thought his BG meter was a mobile phone and as he said...........'testing blood on it ' !!!!!!

Hoping to see him in Cardiff in April, he’s hilarious. Planning to meet up with a few of my online T1 buddies for it

"Blood sacrifice for a mobile contract...."

Like that it was funny.

Very funny. Not sure he’d go down to well with some on this forum though.

Ed Gamble is quality - would like to see one of his shows one day when he's touring.

There is indeed an attachment that converts a smartphone into a bgl meter Feed it strips like any other regular glucometer, Don't know how reliable it is but it is new on the market, Seek under tradename MyDario

Type II "doesn't count when you do it to yourself". Yep he's a comedian alright, AKA a wind up merchant. Still funny though. Amusing from somebody who lost 6 stone in 2 years. Or said a different way, somebody who was 6 stone heavier.

He was on for about 10 minutes I think, but only saw some of it, he did make me smile

Never heard of MyDario. All I want my phone to do is, phone people, text and whatsapp, that's it. I have a second hand Samsung Galaxy S 111 mini, my daughter thinks it is so old

Never heard of MyDario and from what Ed Gamble was saying, the person who asked didn't seem know either lol All I want my phone to do is, phone people, text and whatsapp, that's it. I have a second hand Samsung Galaxy S 111 mini, my daughter thinks it is so old

I have a Nokia 105 single sim 2017 edition in black. £ 7.00 or there about.

Whatswhatsapp?

WhatsApp Messenger is a freeware and cross-platform messaging and Voice over IP service owned by Facebook. The application allows the sending of text messages and voice calls, as well as video calls, images and other media, documents, and user location.
Thank you Wikipedia.

True, but I decided to interpret that bit as sarcasm, because no diabetic can say that about other diabetics and really mean it, right?
Anyway, I dare you to watch the first bits of Ricky Gervais' show Science. I haven't really enjoyed him since.

Absolutely, different if it was on the front page of the Fail. LOL

Whatsapp is handy and it is free, except trying to call someone as the reception is so poor. Then some star emoji's appear at the bottom after the call asking you to rate the call, all I have used is the number 1

I think as a fellow Nokia user, I can say that it will not run this App, nor will it work with MyDario either, Us steam radio dinosaurs will need to upgrade if we want these benefits.
