Hi True Blue my meter shows mmol readings but on here other meter readings are just two numbers like 38 were my readings are 6.5 always a number then part of a number. I’ve only had a tee2 meter so I can’t say if someone is high or low unless others rank it a winner. Hope I’m making sence.KHello K. If you give me your unit of measurement I can give you a conversion factor to mmo/lt which most UK meters have as the default.
Brilliant rainbows hereGood morning everyone on a bit of an overcast start after the show with the norther lights over the past few nights. We have a food deliver this morning, 10am if you can believe the email and only one item substituted, far better this way than a dash round the Co-Op with a suitcase. I am designating Sunday as a day of rest. So tiring listening to Mrs Miggins lagging loft spaces, stripping wallpaper with the noisy hiss of a steam punk thing and then the waft of paint being applied. Still, it’s one of her favourite things to do - decorating - I have in the past come home from a bike tour in Europe to find a completely different looking house. “Do you play cricket?” - “Tennis actually.” - “Ah tennis, I used to play cricket……” or so the Monty Python sketch goes - and go you must my cobber my lad.
No idea what is going on here, I applied inks to some rice paper and then sprayed with water - left it to dry and then did the same again a couple more times. May experiment more. Have the best of times that you can. In fact recite A Tale Of Two Cities in the style of Chris Eubank (you can find instructions by Greg Davies on YouTube) - time for koffy.

Hi there K. I hesitate before giving any advice, except to say that the info pages of this same website are moderated by professionals. The mmo/lt values quoted should be used as guidance on the success of your BG control. My meter clearly states the units are mmo/lt. However my nephew in Canada (type 1) quotes his numbers as "HbA1c" so I guess his meter uses those units. (see table).Hi True Blue my meter shows mmol readings but on here other meter readings are just two numbers like 38 were my readings are 6.5 always a number then part of a number.

Hi PenguinMum just read your post about driving to Cornwall we used to go every year but not been in many a year I used to drive overnight and would reach end of motorway by 7am we set off at 10pm from home, on joining A34 we used to stop off for breakfast at Little Chef and to recuperate before long second part of journey to St Ives. We have been travelling all over Europe for over 40years for our holidays but we decided we wanted to visit Cornwall again so we have booked for summer this year can’t wait to see what it’s now like if it’s changed any, hate the long journey down but worth it in the end.K@DJC3 good to see you here. When we used to travel to Cornwall on Saturdays in school holidays my OH always insisted we set off not later than 5am. The kids had pillows and rugs in the back and usually we were in Cornwall for a late breakfast. Mind you since those days the traffic will only have increased but the roads are a tad better. We usually took a diversion at Jamaica Inn. Worth it though.

Thank you I’m sure we will I’m looking forward to seeing another part of Cornwall from always going to St Ives we are trying Penzance I love an adventure even though my knees and back are painful I will keep on going has the excitement of seeing something new keeps me going.Oh I can’t wait.KWave as you go past @Granny_grump_ we live about 1.5 hrs after the M5. We moved down here about 5 years ago and I’ve never regretted it although a lot of things take some getting used to - the fact that no one turns up when they say they will for starters.
Have a wonderful holiday this summer.
That's exactly how I feel @karen89675.6 for meView attachment 52924
love the pastel @gennepher. Popeye looks very thoughtful this morning.
Beautiful pastels reflecting the light off the water and those little white plants
