Could do with a bug-eyed response to post emoji! So glad the sheriff had some understanding of T1.
 
I love crisps.

Can I just drop that in? Husband brought through packets ....
 
Maximum carb load so far has been 20g in one go - I don't prebolus at all for that. In all honesty I feel so good on the diet I follow that I don't want to change things by adding carbs - I don't like the groggy "carb coma" feeling I get.


I went to the Abbott site online, contact/complaints and sent them an email on Wednesday. I’ve just had a reply asking for details of the Reader and error messages which I’ve sent to them today. I’ll let you know what happens.
 

Poor poor child!
 
Hello friends,

I've been a good potato - stable all night and woke up on 8.1, but yesterday's mcdonalds session was worth it for my tummy but not diabetes. It screamed high for 5-6 hours.

I love the lentil ones but have to hide some if I’m going to get any - whole family turn into vegesharks.
 
Just spent a frustrating bs raising hour trying to pay tax through HMRC online site - don’t know why I bothered - total fail. Able to do it in a flash through online banking and sort etc codes for govt coffers. Hope not more redundancies looming for govt workforce.

I find the Womble one of the most useful sites I have ever come across.

And yes, sometimes only crisps will do. I think it's the salt.
 
Oops, sorry @DCUK Mod, and @Mel dCP, I sent the reply to Mel, not to mod. Brain addled by Abbott and HMRC

The students have left the Main Paid Work building in their own inimitable fashion. The leavers left with panache, oh my... "This is me" from the Greatest Showman really has become their anthem for this day and reports of me and my main students in a group hug dancing along and singing our hearts out will neither be confirmed nor denied.

Just three days of training to go.

The first round of gas men have done their bit. I sit and wait for the next one to arrive and dream of the possibility of the first bath since Tuesday.
