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

As the man said. This is both scary (very Day of the Jackal) and very useful, fortunately leavened with some humour. Carole Cadwalladr knows that of what she writes. I particularly liked this:
Humour is a weapon. Any man who feels the need to build a rocket is not overconfident about his masculinity. Work with that. Made I larff a great deal. Is it me or does Elon seem to have small hands?

Thanks for the poem, Ian.
 
A welcome 6.2 this very long Sunday.
It is now winter.
I say this cos, since Mrs L awakened her beloved, very earlyish, it is very baltic, with the dampness of a drenching, chucking it down. And add on a chilly wind, it is not nice.
Garden is once again covered in the local forestry detritus. Sodden leaves everywhere, and my floral attempts are suffering.
This is the good news.
Mrs L has lost her purse. And her phone. And her reasoning. And her balance.
Have looked for all of them. The phone is now charging. The rest no idea.
Don't panic as the bestest corporal in television once espoused.
They will turn up or turnip is it?

Was hoping to start decor, but an accident has me doing another two piles of washing and laundry drying for the bedroom again. Got the winter bedding on now. Be prepared you lot.
Salt aplenty and spade on hand.
Heating on, might pay for it, next year, if they are lucky, ha!

The gammon was expertly cooked, and expertly getting a seeing to.

Keep warm, keep safe.
my solemn Sabbath bestest wishes.
 
Thank you @ianpspurs - had to look up TLDR as I don’t do TLA’s, FLA’s or probably NLA’s where N is the number of letters in said LA.
 
Thank you @jjraak. Feet were then compared to hands and then we had to do lower leg and forearm before they turned their attention to the Achilles Ligament and then what is the jelly stuff for in the middle of bones. When you are seven years old, one answered question just morphs into yet more questions. But what fun!
 
Thanks for the poem. We loved Timmy and Pru’s canal trips but could never keep up with the number of drinks. We thought that Timothy West did a great thing by Prunella Scales as she dived into dementia.
 
Busy day for you again but that gammon sounds a triumph.
 
Good to hear that in the bleak and still not even mid-winter the gammon is able to brighten your day. Might you be able to relax and watch T20 later?

I have watched all the series.
And the darts is on now.
And the footie earlier.
I wasn't impressed with our bowling last evening.
I wasn't impressed with the team selection either, seems because of the number of international games, domestic leagues and other stuff, like the footie some can't be ***** turning out for these games.
there was a sub for England tonight I had never heard of him......
must be the first one ever I just hadn't heard of him, who he plays for without looking it up..
what is going on?
 
Thank you for updating us with the good news @JohnEGreen.
So many disorders give rise to chest pains. Well done for taking prompt action. Better safe than sorry.

Creative...inks on a postcard. I used a water spray bottle. Then drew trees and birds ..

There was a huge snow cloud over mine yesterday afternoon, everywhere went dark, but the snow cloud moved on and dumped its cargo somewhere else...phew, it really did look like an ominous cloud ...

Have your best kind of day

 
6.0 this morning. Have got a really long break today so will catch up with some studying, which will be really good.

We look as though we will be lucky here in central Norfolk and will miss the snow this week.
 
Wonderful - looks quite cold
