Good morning everyone, in double figures last night, so I took a 1 unit correction and awoke on a 5.5, so just a 1/2 unit this morning for breakfast.
Wishing you all a sunny day ( even though it is Monday) :rolleyes: ;)

17. fr**ging 6 this morning, comfort food as in a curry from the local Indian to blame, 6.6 when I went to bed....

Happy Monday.

I use certain language at times too, normally I say 'oh for flip sake' when someone else is here :rolleyes:17.6, that's a huge spike and that also happened to me, so annoying ,hopefully it will get down as the day goes by.

If you are talking about merging the threads, the content goes across and stays in "time posted" order, so there would be many pages of this thread as a preamble to Robin's thread opener and content. Is that what you want?

If that is what you want, any mod can merge threads.

That's fine by me @DCUKMod

I use very industrial language from time to time with regard to my diabetes. but I can speak without swearing :p

7.9 now, 4u and I've not yet eaten, there's a bowl of porridge sat waiting for me to cook it but the libre line is telling me the insulin's peaking so I may need a small jab to eat.

I could have done without the poor start but that's T1d....

Awful night, went to bed higher than I would have liked but had had alcohol and didn’t want a low. Chance would have been a fine thing!

as I was swimming. 80 lengths and an hour later 5.3. Good job I had those jelly babies.
Now at 5.7 and relax!

Good swim that :) a decent distance says a bloke who enters pre hypo territory at 60 lengths breaststroke

Go spoil my day and tell me that was all front crawl :p

I would have sought your permission as the thread starter.

All I will say is, once merged, there's no going back, so you and @SueJB might care to go through both existing threads to comfort yourself on how it will appear on-screen once merged.

My concern is there would be a long preamble of some of the less cordial posts on the other thread, before reaching the essence of this one. I just wonder if some of the posts on the other thread would discourage some from posting on here.

Of course, I wouldn't stand in the way of merging, if you're both comfortable with that.

I'll be off-forum for a while shortly, but as I say, any Mod can merge threads.

Thank you I will have a look at the other thread in question before I make a decision.

@Robinredbreast if you don't want to merge, I think the thread I started could be deleted. It's the same idea as yours but I wouldn't want the people who posted, just a few to be miffed. I just think it's magic we had the same idea

I have decided just to keep this and not merge, but do whatever you think would be best for your thread :)
