Shame about the lack of fruit and also the muggy air but what a wonderfully cheery kaleidoscope.

Badgers & Foxes & Cats - Swing is busy tonight.

Creative...Kaleidoscope. in Laboscope app.
I still have some white dog daisies left!
Most of the flowering roses lost their petals quickly this year.
I now have the grand total of 2 pathetic looking apples on my apple trees. They won't make me a year's supply of free apple sauce. Nothing on my cooking apple tree, nor my pear tree, nor my cherry tree...
The badgers are eating all the edible berries within reach, faster than I can protect them...
Surely the countryside and the woodlands around me has enough food for them?
Slept well last night, still got fans, humidifiers etc going. Midnight is sitting on my lap getting the benefit as well.
I might as well have a short nap with him! Then play catch up.
The outside air is very still and muggy. Not a leaf is moving.
I have a gale force wind blowing through my bungalow with the aid of my fans! But I will close my doors and windows in a bit, because the air outside is not aiding any coolness in my bungalow.
Have your best day...

Happy birthday tomorrow Mrs L That wasn't a test match, more an elongated T20. Jimmy needs to coach the young 'uns before the next Ashes imho. Dyson and Tim Martin should both just shut up and live quietly with their money - they are what I believe the Osage brilliantly called blackbird mouths. I have actually been in a Wetherspoons for refillable coffee - there was cream. We'll leave it there. Dyson's kit is grossly overpriced and doesn't deliver imho. Actually, that sums up the Brexit deal Frost and Bojo cobbled together perfectly6.1 yay!
Gas off at 7.30!
Salad for first meal, and probably second as well!
Cricket and Jimmy over.
I would ask him to see the summer out.
As a lanky suppoter, he could and should come back to Old Trafford and play there!
Was gonna get paint out again today, cos if not, it would now be Monday to do it, as it is a celebration this weekend for Mrs L.
As tomorrow is Mrs L 's birthday.
And it's the twelfth today.
My son is working in N.I. And has sent pictures of the Belfast area.
@gennepher, I cannot believe that you need all your fans on to keep cool?
I'm certain that in N.Wales, it is not that warm, mid teens temps.
I'm sitting with politics social on the box while posting and reading on here, with the back door open in shorts and T-shirt!
I'm not cold.
I do think that, your homeostasis is overheating, somehow.
Before diagnosis, in winter, I would be doing exactly the same, because of the rollercoaster blood glucose levels were causing my homeostasis to make me sweaty, it would have to be really freezing to get me to shut the doo
Maybe it is the architecture of your bungalow or the design to keep heat in.
It doesn't seem right to me.
But I could be totally wrong.
That is what doctors are for.
To ask why?
Gasmen meanwhile are making a right noise and a mess outside, it is labour intensive, they do work hard, the lads, have made cuppa for them. Apparently, out of my hair tonight!
Cheeky buggers.
Seems the financial services are reviewing the doom and gloom, since last week, pound has gone up!
Why did **** Tyson wait for this week to announce redundancies in U.K.?
Why does **** Tyson donate to the tories?
As a brexiteer, why has Dic k Tyson, taken jobs away from U.K.? Not only to the far east, but to Europe?
Hard week for us lot on here, there is always some health thing as we get older. My list below has grown so much these last ten years. It always seems one knock after another.
Have a lovely weekend.
I do like that phrase @ianpspurs.Interesting about the olive oil. I imagine the only person in the world who noticed those 3 lbs was you looking at the scales but you have managed to control your diabetes by being very focused. A phrase I like is when you get careless in a fight **it wins. Take care and enjoy Friday.
That sounds like the perfect set up @ianpspursOrganised - I would say blessed. The tea and coffee making facilities are here, there is a large tv with Sky here and the dogs are in here with us. We will probably watch the Killers of the Flower moon which is on Apple TV since Barclays kindly gave me free Apple TV and it is nice and long - I'd have preferred money back but hey ho.
That is interesting @lindisfel. I had resisted using more olive oil because I was concerned about putting on weight but it does look as though I was wrong.I have loads of olive oil that I use for cooking eggs. The oil has never been implicated in weight gain. But then again I do not believe the human body is a calorimetry.
I certainly would never count calories.

You do have a colourful way of explanations.Happy birthday tomorrow Mrs L That wasn't a test match, more an elongated T20. Jimmy needs to coach the young 'uns before the next Ashes imho.

Always seems to be a chew on with food choices when eating out/take aways. Far too much stodge. I like our Italian restaurant as I can get fish or seafood with salads (no dressing please, just bring some olive oil). Enjoy what you have chosen.Due to the building work it will be takeaway this evening. We are fortunate to have far more and more varied takeaway outlets than the average town of this size. I like this one and am opting for what I think may well be relatively keto: salmon Tikka starter; tandoori mixed grill - salad only (menu) JKP is off out this evening with the partners of two sons. There is a boutique cafe by day cum bar by night in town - very trendy I read. I hope the bar is well stocked as the Lithuanian damsel is a thirsty little gel. Not advertising just saying that after 8 years I think I may have found some takeaway food that almost fits this crazy way of eating when there is an emergency. I don't think UK takeaway or eat in does that and definitely not at a sensible price point - not for me anyhow,.
Thank you Ian...yes it is odd...Thank you for sharing the amazing kaleidoscope. Shame about this year's crops. I think that may become a widespread issue for fruit and veg. Glad you are cooling that place but the weather this year is best described as odd.
Happy Birthday for Mrs L tomorrow @Lamont D6.1 yay!

That's right @Krystyna23040.5.3 this morning.
Have lost 1lb of the 3lb I have got to lose which I am really happy that as it went surprisingly quickly.
I don't often do fad things that I read about on the internet but have started taking a spoonful of olive oil before bed for it's health benefits. I thought it would stall the weight loss but very interestingly it hasn't.
Hug for the fbg John. Tough times don't last but tough people do and though I've never met you in person I sense you are made of the right stuff. You know as well as me that its Friday but Sunday's coming - fbg is just one of the ways we are tested. I've PMd you a little encouragement.Fbg a disappointing 6.3 today am telling myself tomorrow is another day and who knows what it will bring.
I started with the extra olive oil to help with inflammation and gut health but am really pleased that it has lowered my blood sugars during the day and has also kick started my weight loss. Those 3lbs were stubbornly refusing to move prior to the extra olive oil.That's right @Krystyna23040.
Fats not only play an important role in the control of diabetes, but also weight management. It may sound counterintuitive, but fats do not make a person fat. Carbohydrates in excess do that!
Fats will prevent you from losing weight if you overdo it, but have no effect on insulin; the body's fat-storing hormone, and will not cause weight gain.
When cooking, I'd steer clear of industrial, processed oils like the soy, corn, sunflower and safflower oils often hidden in processed foods, You won't go far wrong if you keep to butter and extra virgin olive oil at the outset and gradually extend your range of cold pressed oils along with your LCHF recipe collection.
Friday's FBG 4.7 mmol on waking at 6.00 am
Morning Ian and welcome to my world of early rises and having to take one pill with a glass of water and then sit for 30 minutes - gives me time to reflect (bonus). Nice tune cat, reminds me of early years when life seemed so different. Never been to Padstein but I like the boys TV shows. Don’t forget to dig out your copy of Chosen Words by Ivor Brown for tomorrowMorning all from a damp L.A. A niggling sort of uncomfortable since about 3.00 am so got up so as not to disturb the slumbering natives. Water, steroids - after a couple of slices of Emmental because I read the leaflet - antibiotics, tea (wait 30 mins after some other meds) and some morning devotional songs are working - thanks be to God literally. Probably the dust and damp have affected my already unhappy skin and itching is a major no no. I could (should?) take the pain killers prescribed but real men don't eat quiche either. More tea and reading then rugby to watch. Happy birthday Mrs L. Have a fine tune - and words - with pictures. Not an area I warm to - I like Padstow, well I would wouldn't I? - but many adore it, JKP talked me into visits. Y'all have a good day because we may be getting an extra bank holiday - do your patriotic duty and shop
Ups and downs John - do we pressurise ourselves about the number 5 somewhat? Take it easy.Fbg a disappointing 6.3 today am telling myself tomorrow is another day and who knows what it will bring.
