Mountain out of mole hill makers ,queues , crowds , shopping on a Saturday hmm just shopping I guess no matter what day it is
Well it had to happen I left my Libre reader in my shorts pocket and they ended up in the washing machine. I’ve put the reader on the radiator but don’t hold out much hope . I have a spare reader and my phone but just means I’ve lost the data , wondering if this has happened to anyone or am I the only Numpty lol
 
You could try putting it in a bowl of rice for about 24 hours - dry uncooked rice, I know that half-saved a phone that had a slight canoeing incident (the waterproof bag I had it in had a hole!).
 
I’ll give it a try thanks
