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

beautiful.
thanks very much.
 
I knew an electrician with a missing index finger on his right hand. He unwisely tested if a fan was running as a young electrician. A substantial fan it whipped it straight off no trouble. A bad mistake to make just once.
Was he a digital electrican?
Sorry, not a fan of that either, having smashed the end of my left forefinger by a dangerous hammer.
My woodwork teacher, a certain Mr Tilyard. Had only four fingers with his two thumbs.
Hence teaching theory rather than practice. Could say it dovetailed his career.
I knew a man called Dovetail.
Don't know where I'm going with this?you
 
6.7 shooping, hopping, chopping and dropping this am.
frantic Friday downtown, sorry I went into one shop. Spent too much!
And still didn't get what was top of my list.

a stack of mail, birthday cards got for #7 next week and have surprise for Mrs L.
Behave!
it is a small ornament to add to her collection, on offer and I couldn't resist.
Maybe, just maybe, I might be in her good books tonight.
Behave!

Weather is cool, cloudy, rain is definitely in the air, so much rain in the last couple of days. And more to come.

The big question to a GM, CEO today. If you can't remember or recall certain aspects of your time there. How did you ever do your job?

Don't understand why, I am feeling quite decent today!
Have your best weekend.
My bestest ever Friday good wishes to you lot.
And to add, get your minds out of the gutter!
 
Smashing little bluetit - nicely done
 
Thanks @ianpspurs
 
I am trying access via tablet and mobile phone but mobile does not seem have the dates on for recent occasions which make life difficult. Having a bit of a struggle but worth persevering.

Wish something would help my memory. Afraid I am having lapses.

Do you still follow Malcolm Guite Ian?I have come across him on net recently.
Derek
I think you are allowed to have some memory lapses with age and illness. I don't follow Malcolm Guite's blog regularly but I definitely read his Lent and Advent anthology. I use this resource quite often especially this section. Obviously not for everyone.

Sadly the nest is now empty - with an incriminating tuft of fur identifying the culprit.

Yeah it has been a bit of a time... but not bowel cancer, so let‘s be thankful for small mercies.
That's actually a medium mercy - one of our friends has just received this diagnosis and is undergoing invasive and intensive treatment.
 
Lovely video of the bluetit
 
Best wishes for the drip trip.
