What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

Absolutely splendid @dunelm
Love this tree and rocks...
 
Thanks @ianpspurs
 
Blooming heck @SlimLizzy it is near impossible all those bureaucracy demands...

Yes 4 strays now...why me? You missed nothing. They suddenly appeared...I think there must be some sign posting leading them to this location...
 
Good to hear from you, all the best wishes to you back and hope that your old house sells quickly.
Thank you@dunelm.

good evening all

4.2 today

up early and out shopping for the weekly list today and then dropped off Mum's share of the shopping. It was pretty quiet in the shops this morning thankfully

Have been asked twice this week so far by visitors about the signs we still have displayed on quite a few of our local windows, (A4 sized green thumbs up signs), they hadn't seen anything like them and they're dotted about in the village
I explained the other sign in the pair has a big red thumbs down on it and if anyone in the house is ill or has to self isolate they show the red poster and someone will call a local volunteer to offer help with shopping or whatever they were given out at the time of the first lockdown but a lot of those who may have a need to shield or have health issues have continued to use them (covid has not exactly gone after all )
Is that sort of thing not a widespread idea?

Hope your day is treating you well

@gennepher - Snapseed can really work some changes, such vibrant colours you seem to be getting to grips with it

@dunelm - love the way your tree is clinging to the rock ledge and the texture in the rocks is especially effective

@lindisfel - good to hear you're feeling a bit better

@SlimLizzy - thank you, the mocha did turn out quite well, I can't remember if I posted the recipe, I'll have a dig about
Hope your visit and return go successfully


art bit - was trying out a new bottle of resist
 
Thank you @geefull. The green/red window signs are a great idea but I have not heard of these before now. Wonderful landscape from you but what lies beneath the waves?
 
Good morning everyone on another overcast and muggy start here in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of sriracha chicken and creamy leaks with bacon came in at 5.2 this am

Bit of a lazy day yesterday but managed to time my morning walk to get home just in time to cheer on the parade of the bin lorry. More visitors later today, youngest son and his mate staying overnight. They are cycling along Hadrians Wall cycle route tomorrow - hope the weather holds for them. His mate is a vegetarian so it will be roasted cauliflower and various other veggie things.

Art bit - another tree with even more technicolor - no panoramic sound though. Have a wonderful day if you can. Time for koffy.

 
Looks they will get some sunshine on the West side of the watershed, dunelm.

Your Pine looks excellent. For a tree that's really seen life the Bristlecone Pine would make an interesting subject
D.
 
5.3 this morning. Even though it is a grey day we are off to Gooderstone Water Gardens after we have done the weekly shop. Am at the moment debating whether or not to have a third Nespresso coffee before going shopping.
 
That must have been so stressful. Thank goodness they let you travel.

I have the same issue at airports. It is always me who has the problems. Once at Sydney airport, when visiting daughter and family, Passport Control stated that my 9 year passport photo wasn't me. I explained that I was 9 years older. They said yes, but you look younger than the photo. They did eventually let me through.

Another time I was surrounded by security staff because the scanner showed a gun in my suitcase. This turned out to be a blusher brush in a metal case. We were trying to leave New York after 9/11 so it was a stressful time.
 
Greetings one and all from a damp, dull, distinctly chilly Forest Heath on bin day for those raised in Cambridgeshire and Colorado. A disturbing 5.4 on Swipey but what's a guy to do? About 8 days of probably the highest and most prolonged period of abnormal readings in 6 years. Grotty cold/virus well embedded and I've never found an LC remedy/pacifier or any comfort from LC food. There's a vital lesson embedded deep in the 18 months of a poo show the move seems to be but I'm just too thick or stubborn to have my sliding doors moment just yet. Seems that God loves me too much and won't give up on me. My guess is I'll only understand on the other side be that this world or the next. Hope all goes well for your son and his friend @dunelm. Glad your recovery is going well @lindisfel. All 3 of our boys and all 7 grandchildren here today - of course that is a blessing regardless of location and my problems understanding this "module". Get the balance right Ian. (Lyrics) Smile and wave boys, smile and wave.
