Ooh Kraftwerk....I like them, good choice, will have a look on my iPod to see if I have them on it.
Happy birthday @Mel dCP
 
Recipe is linked in my post, but here it is again

I also do a very nice lemon one. I love cake.
 
The heat is having the same effect on me. I’m so resistant at the moment, it’s silly.
 
That last message was an odd one, I wrote it at home on the pc whilst eating tea and didn't send it but the same message was sat there at half time when I looked at my phone, so I edited it and posted it, strange

I dropped to 3.9 but you can scan in a crowd and correct without any problems, I gave watching evening football up as my bloods would go wrong in the rush to eat and get across town so that was quite satisfying doing a spur of the moment thing and it not going pearshaped.

Good to meet up with my lad and his mate at the football, remembering me taking them to Southport for their first away game aged 9 and they're in their mid 20s now.

And City won 1 - 0 so it was like finding hens teeth.
 
Happy birthday mel

Good morning everyone and @Mel dCP I hope your birthday was a crackerjack one x
It's dull here and cooler, awoke on a 3.0 ! oh rats.... before bed was 7.1.
I might try to go into town to pick up a prescription from Boots today. on my own, first time I have actually been into town centre for about 6 weeks.
Hope you all have a wicked Wednesday
 
I don't like chocolate cake and I love the warm weather in fact the hotter the better which doesn't effect my insulin at all...
To balance it out I'm coeliac and have Bile Acid Malabsorption so I have my own crosses to bear and I couldn't eat that cake Mel even if I wanted to.

4.0 this morning so happy days.....

Happy times and places

Very tempted to go blackberrying this morning. Past loads of brambles yesterday exploring the far outreaches of a country park which I do walk around regularly, but usually along the main path by the brook. There's plenty of fruit on lots of bushes at a reasonable height. I've even got fruit on the three rogue brambles in my garden which escaped my cull of them last year.

I grew up on in a house which was on farmland (land was farmed by neighbouring farmer) with loads of blackberries and at the time was very sad when we moved into a town with fewer blackberry opportunities..
 
Good morning y'all and a big fat Grrrrrrrrr from me, woke at 3.9 Libre, felt ok, had a couple of Dextrotabs and a coffee/pre bolus and sat for 10 before eating my porridge, Libre scan as I go and it says 2,6 like you what? Finger stick says 3.9 and that'll be the lowest point of the breakfast swing as I cracked straight on with my second course.

'Diabeticly' I'm ok and feel fine but that was frustrating as my hypo awareness has sharpened up again and I knew it wasn't in the 2's.

Halfway to the weekend, enjoy your days

Strange morning, 15mmol - no idea where that came from! but pain level is lower - could this be the start of it settling down...........I *expletive* hope so!

@karen8967 did you really think it was Friday?!?!
 
Do you have different music for different tasks?
I wonder what toons you will be playing as you bake and eat the cake recipe from @Mel dCP

Oh and, morning one and all. Hope it is a fun/productive/pain-free/positive (delete as applicable) day.

Yeah I do for most things, plus I also make songs up, by that I mean I change the words of songs to fit the occassion, most ofthe time they are rude

Making cake? well at the moment I'm into Chinese Man or some other dance/hip hop that might be on, much to the annoyance of MrsK or could be Abba maybe Elvis, he is usually good for baking

Morning all! Smooth sailing overnight, but a little hump in the line since nine o’clock, so I’ll do a spot of fiddling with my rates to iron it out. Correcting quite aggressively to get into range just now... quiet one today, husband’s birthday tomorrow but I don’t know what he wants to do yet.

Hope you’re all well xxx

PS lemon cake recipe is here
 
Nothing so good as travelling on a gentle ocean swell. Maybe a nearby dolphin splash caused the little wave. Pushing through the wave leads to calmer water.
Or to take another analogy, the ironing mat is smooth with the occasional wrinkle or bump which needs a burst of steam.
Please continue your awesome journey.
