You as well? My new one is already reading 2mmol low. I’ve had to put it on my arm instead of my chest as I have clinic next week and they might not accept my saying it’s sqiffy if it’s in the wrong place.
Anyway, smooth night BG wise after a very long CFR call last night to a lady with advanced dementia and chest pains. Think we were on scene for five hours all in all.
GCSE result day, so nervous teenager is heading for school in a bit to collect them. I’m off to Liverpool for a few days after that.
@MeiChanski - implants are great
Thank you, he’s very nervous, bless him. I’m actually going to the Wirral, but will at some point cross the Mersey into Liverpool!Good luck for your teenager todayand have a fab time in Liverpool, I have never been to Liverpool, but was born nearby

Have a lovely day and good luck helping your granddaughter lose her injecting inhibitions!Good morning, just over double figures on waking and it was a steady line during the night.
Granddaughter will be round at 10.30 and then we are getting a bus to the farm, I hope it's a double decker because the views from the top are lovely.
I am hoping to have a little chat with my granddaughter regarding her diabetes, as she still wont inject in public, she's 10 now and insists on injecting by hiding away, especially in a toilet which I don't want her to do, so I'm hoping we can test and inject together, but I wont push it.
Can't wait to see all the cute animals, big and small
Morning woke to a 3.2 not expected but OK as things go.
Tech update
Both Reader and Mobile said last night "2 days left" this morning "no sensor", "Start a new sensor"HMMMMMMMMM something wrong with the Space Time Continuum, or something has gone BOINK!
So what to do?
Well finger pricks and xDrip are still working so will go with that for the rest of the day and will change the sensor tonight.
Stupid **** ridiculous ***£$ tech.
@MeiChanski read up think Marie2 mentioned implants
What country were they thinking of?Well done mini Mel’s son! Fantastic!
Next door neighbours’ eldest gets results today too, but no sounds yet from the house or garden. Hope they’re ok, she’s lovely and it’d be great to grin with them.
On the family front it seems a dark cloud’s hanging over the group who want to leave the country for a while. They’re waiting for visas and in the meantime all applications for jobs are meeting with silence or being rejected, so they’re very downhearted. It seemed that son-in-law was seen as a shoe-in after one interview, all the talk was conducted with the interviewer linguistically confirming that he’d be doing the job but at the last minute there was a kerfuffle and it all fell apart. They’re enormously lucky compared to refugees: they have a roof over their heads, money coming in, friends, family, food on the table, they’re in a familiar place, but they still feel very down.
New Zealand. Very popular. They worked there one U.K. summer when they were students and like the place a lot.What country were they thinking of?
@Mel dCP , do you use i-phone?I know many of us use Glimp to be able to calibrate our libre readings. Is there an app that can do that with i-phone? (not asking for myself, I don't do way to expensive phones)
Do you know if there are any other apps available for i-phone?Mel does use a phone form the Shiney Fruit Farm and Tomato app I think works on IOS it works on Android as I tried it for a few hours, it works but is very basic when compared to Glimp or xDrip.
@MeiChanski sorry to read about your Fiasp problems. Thankfully, I picked up some this week with no problem.
Your comment makes me appreciate my pharmacist - the last time he couldn't get hold of an item on my prescription he phones around all the local pharmacists (basically, his competition) until he found one with what I needed.
Do you have enough spare insulin or are you getting low? If you are getting low, is it worthwhile getting a NovoRapid prescription to tide you over.
I know I shouldn't laugh at typos but as I type them so often, I hope you are not offended by my smirk at your wide goose. I would expect wide ones to waddle slower than wild geese so be easier to catch
Was this the one you were after?
