There are quite thin commercial solar panels which fold up, like a paper map. They are close to large pocket size when folded. With the wisdom of years (with residual insanity usually under control) I figure that I am unlikely to to really need the solar cells - although I have a car trip planned in Tasmania next year (for kite flying, is there any other possible reason?) and could theoretically need solar cells in the nth degree of disaster planning. Perhaps one could rig up a solar panel on a kite, wind willing!!
 

Here’s my website gallery https://seirian.me/gallery/[/QUOTE]
Amazing gallery!! I have visions of you at a forge hammering out the silver (and the occasional sword, mace, halberd and other armour). Why do not the children call you the 'reindeer lady' ?
 
Routine is routinely important !! Keeping it interesting at the same thing is the challenge!!
 
And................while we're on the subject of talents, @kitedoc has never shown us a photo of one of his kites, other than the picture in his profile, we've seen no kite photos.

Go on Kitedoc, you know you want to.
Once this Luddite sorts out the URL thingy I shall do.
 
Hi @the
I assume you do not go near the new cat's H-like whiskers!!
 
Hi @therower, And no, a hole in a boat would not make a good image. But what about oars, woodwork (even with holes in it ??

Not so much a forge, but a purple shed
 
Morning y'all, nearly the weekend
Waking to a 7.9 that's risen to 8.3 after my breakfast insulin and is just starting to drop 45 mins after injecting, my porridge has been soaking all night and just wants to be eaten but patience will win out

My lunchtime Tresiba has been upped a unit to 17u, day 3 of that and I have to say I'm surprised at the improvement in my blood sugars, the sleeping hypos from the other week were nasty but (touches wood) they've gone

Edit, and I've just cracked a double yolk egg in to my poaching dish

Perhaps, like most great discoveries, you've accidentally discovered that lunch time is the perfect time to inject Tresiba.
 
Morning guys, I awoke on double figures. Yesterday late afternoon I made a curry, I had a hupo, corrected it and had a nice relaxing bath, started to feel unwell so checked again, now 2.4 ate more food. When daughter came home I dished up curry, but still didn't feel well, I only had a couple of mouthfuls of curry, just couldn't eat anymore, so I had a banana, a yogurt drink and some fruit, and lay down on the sofa, but my legs wouldn't stop with the RLS and it was , so I had to keep walking about, shaking my leg too and took another tablet, it finally stopped at 9pm, I was cream crackerd and feeling a little worse for wear this morning, BS last night was 14.2, took a correction dose and now 12.2, so need to get that down. I have to be out late morning, so hoping BS will settle down
Take care x
 
Started the day on a 5.8, unlikely to stay that way especially tonight as out with friends which will no doubt will be a joyous and drunken time.
 
Good morning all
Woke to a 4.0 this morning.....breakfast with 1 less unit of Fiasp and am now on a 8 with a flat line, ok with the day so far
Talents! Well I used to fly r/c helicopters to a fairly high standard if that counts, only other thing is I am a very keen photographer. Looking at some of the things being made on this thread is mind boggling and only wish I was half as talented
 
Morning all

Hope your BG levels play nicely today @Robinredbreast I find with events like this that they are quite exhausting, so hope you have a better day.

Pump change this morning and sat at 6.5 after having an overnight of 10+ mmol/l.

School reunion tomorrow night, yikes !!!!
 

Thank you. just going to check BS now.
6.5 is a good reading and I hope you will have a lovely catch up reunion tomorrow night and a drink or two
 
Thanks @Robinredbreast Am not a huge fan of reunions, but a few good pals are going so looking forward to seeing them as we still stay in touch, last reunion I went to I didn't recognise a few who I knew well at school, it was amazing to see how people had changed though in 30 years !!
 

I had a school reunion around 5 years ago...The main question people who remembered me was "Are you still diabetic??". I think my facial expression convinced them that I was, indeed, still diabetic lol
