Hi Folks
Had a 5.6 yesterday morning, prior to taking my daughter back to University.
Not something I look forward to TBH, as the amount of stuff she "needs" makes my car seem inadequate.
The 250 mile drive doesn't help either, particularly since being embellished by three sections of average speed check 50 mph limits down the M1, one of which is about 29 miles long.
Neither does the fact that her flat is on the fourth floor, or that we then have to go shopping for all the other stuff she "needs".
To make this bearable, my wife and I stay overnight in an hotel and go out for a meal once she is installed to a rather good Indian restaurant we know, breakfast the next morning is hotel provided, we talk a walk on the seafront, then drive the 250 miles back again - noting the limits are still there, nothing has changed, and no-one is actually working.......
And I am sure I have come across more numpties on the road during the last two days than AJ ever will on the school run.
Despite all the distractions and complications though - snack lunches from service stations, Indian meal out and a hotel breakfast, BG level on arrival at the hotel yesterday were down to 5.5, and further down again to a more reasonable 5.2 this morning.
Which I am actually both quite surprised and pleased by!
