Penfold, where were your bloods at the 2 hour mark? Many, including non-diabetics can have a rise, at the 60-90 minute mark, then snap back into range by two hours.
Whilst a 10 isn't great for the ego, I wouldn't, on a one-off, consider it a disaster. Another thing to remember is that our bodies run to routines, so giving it a bit of a one-off carb-hit can result in a more extreme reading than you might find if the experiment were to be repeated.
Honestly, the way you like to explore, I would suggest you strongly consider a couple of Libre sensors. They can begin to give you a true insight into what goes on in the background with your body.
If you have a suitable Android phone, or an iPhone 6 or later, you don't even have to buy a reader, as sensors can be activated and read via the app, then shared with whomever (I assume using an email).
Each sensor is c£50, with the reader (if you need/want one) about the same. I'd suggest a minimum of 2 sensors so that you can benchmark yourself with the first, then maybe be a little more adventurous with the other, although a single week of benchmarking may be enough if you're fairly stable.
I started using the Libre (only part-time) after probably 18 months of diagnosis, but I still learned a huge amount about my body. I haven't encountered a single person who learned nothing from their investment.
I have no intention of using the Libre full-time unless my condition changes, but the odd time, just helps reassure me I'm on track.
