@Fairygodmother Whiteport was one of my Christmas favourites. In a good one you can taste the fruit, in a dry one... it's almost like a Chablis.. a bit steel like but still with a hint of sweetness. OMG!! I sound like some snotty dotty from the TV!!But honestly they can be sweet or dry and obviously the former really makes my BG sing. I saw some in Sainsburys last week.The kite flying and running also highlights the tribal inequalities in a country where, as in so many, the heavy hand of the foreigners (so many different countries: France, Russia, the USA, the U.K.) duffed things up!
Right, before I get too serious, has anyone tried dry white port, the new kid on the block? I think it’s great, not too syrupy for a T1 and tastes good! It’s a nanniversary solstice special here!

Just had a wonderful little parcel delivered, a gift from Mr B's aunt. Full of cheeses, Perl wen, Wensleydale, Caerphilly etc and ham hocks and bacon. Does cheese freeze?
Very true @Fairygodmother I vaguely remember doing the same in Paraguay but can't think what it tasted like. Just wondering about now as it's so freely available. I just don't want it to go to waste.We used to freeze big big blocks of cheddar in West Africa on the rare occasions they were flown in and they were ok when defrosted but it may have been scarcity that made them seem so good.
For me and others around my age it's not wept, it's terrified at the film! Fluffy bunnies, animation, of course it's suitable for children...I wept at that one too!
I think Xdrip is broken lol. Went to bed 6.5 woke to a 6.5 and sat on a 6.5 now......what is going on? BGs are around the same also. Long may it continue.....It will all go Pete Tong later for sure
Pretty much the same mate....hence why I think it's brokeWithout checking, I could have sworn you posted this word for word not too long ago...................???!!!
Morning all, this very wet, shortest day. Mad Friday also, according to my policeman son.
@SueJB read The KiteRunner some years ago. Very good.
Sitting on a 6.2 about to go for my swim fit session. Will I need a jelly baby or not, will assess before getting in.

@DCUKMod . Missed this. Great news. Currently in a position to be able to self fund Dexcom but hopefully some not in my position will be able to reap the benefits.
Beams contentedly at the whole wide world.
Lol, Japes, T1 can be messy at times, but it's always a winner when we get ourselves into that, "yeah, it's working for me right now" groove - I'm there just now!
Please do not overdo it in your unwell condition!!Morning all, thought I must have died in the night as I woke to a flat line 5.1 - had to check with a blood test, and that said 5.2
Delivering son to his dad for the weekend, and then braving Sainsbury’s for the things Lidl don’t sell...
Works well for grating Parmesan cheese.On the odd time I have frozen cheese. I have grated the cheese, prior to open freezing it. I must admit, wherre cheese has been frozen, I have tended to use it as cooking cheese. Frozen from grated means as much or as little as is requirred can be shaken out into the top of whatever is being cooked.
Personally, I wouldn't freezea soft cheese.
