I'm like 'where have all these newbies come from, our fab thread is certainly growing in popularity '. Basically I haven't got a clue either .....MI6 would not even have me making brews!
Made me laugh OBB...just realised I referred to you under your old user name...not really that clued up on security issues...likely why I am not working for MI6.
It's like riding a bike! You just pick up (your pen) and carry on from where you left off. I pop lots of beautiful stickers on the envelope too. I got a stack of francked stamps from Ebay which work perfectly well (I hope nobody reading this rumbles me!!! ;-) )I can't remember when I last wrote a letter...possibly I've lost the art
Using the user's profile there are messages from poemagahic and stenmar to many that give the old names. Not sure if they can be removed should people wish to change identity.I'm like 'where have all these newbies come from, our fab thread is certainly growing in popularity '.

Oh thank you. Just one more question, is it a one off purchase? Or every 2 weeks like the libre? I presume one off.PRO: I really like the ability to calibrate the results against a finger prick test. (I’m not sure if you NEED the MiaoMiao to do this, there are some 3rd party apps like spike, xdrip, and another I think) I know I couldn’t get the one for iPhone as it needs installing every week by computer which I don’t have access to.
PRO: I don’t need to scan to get numbers. During the day was fine I could scan as often as I liked, but at night I only scanned when awake and I had to guess my number and time by reading the line on the graph.
PRO: I like that it comes through to my Apple Watch automatically. I like my toys.
CON: Now my numbers are good, and I’m not talking insulin is it a bit overkill? I’m not sure how frequently I will use libre sensors soon.
CON: Not cheap MM1 now about £110, new MM2 £140 and your buying from the states so prices fluctuate because of £-$
CON: It does cover the libre sensor so you have a larger device on your arm, found it a bit more obvious when laying on it in bed but I’m used to that now.
CON: You have to keep tomato app running at all times, it drains your phone battery. I had to buy a powerbank for my phone or I couldn’t go out today without charger.
Some of us have changed our user names & avatars Debs...it's not difficult to spot who is who given their style of writing...psst it's me but don't tell anyoneI'm like 'where have all these newbies come from, our fab thread is certainly growing in popularity '.

Hey I’m home! @SaskiaKC and @Bubbsie I PM’d (well I would lol) @DJC3 and she has repetitive strain type injury in her shoulder (she mentioned it recently) and even texting is causing pain so she is just listening in for now. Wishing you a speedy recovery @DJC3 and sending hugs. I loved reading about Frankie and his exuberance. @gennepher your garden swing is beautiful..so glad for you and Popeye to have such a nice relaxing place! Excited to b picking up Bobs and Daisy early tomo.
Good to see you here DJC...looking forward to your return when you able & up to it...hugs but given your shoulder problem gentle ones.Hi PM thanks, and also to @SaskiaKC @Bubbsie and @ianpspurs for your good wishes.
Yes am browsing on and off but not posting much as it triggers the pain.
I’ve decided just to post fbg in low chat thread to keep me focussed, but to read through this one in order to keep an eye on you all! Happy Monday
Yes & no respectively SaskiaOK it is five o'clock in the morning here and I am in the dark both literally and figuratively. Have we suddenly acquired two new members or are these new names for old friends and if so sm I the only one not getting it?
Some are concerned with the openness of the forum & their personal privacy so have changed their user names & avatars Saskia...for no other reason it's not game playing it is for a good reason...give it a chance.I don't like this game playing not knowing who these strangers are. I don't work that way so am feeling as unsettled as Bobs. Y'all have fun its not for me.

It has caused a little confusion. But a couple on here have changed names and avatars due to privacy issues. Took me a while to suss out who is who but their individual style gives clues. Penny has just dropped for me.OK it is five o'clock in the morning here and I am in the dark both literally and figuratively.

I dont like change but I'm running with it in the hope that my jitters will settle as quickly as they arrived.I don't like this game playing not knowing who these strangers are. I don't work that way so am feeling as unsettled as Bobs. Y'all have fun its not for me.

Saskia its nothing like that at all...some choose to guard their privacy not having realised how public the forum is...there was no attempt to deceive or fool anyone...I'm surprised you likened it to a 'cruel childhood game'...really you have to see it for what it is...a matter of personal choice...it will soon become apparent who has changed some of their details...it won't change the dynamics of this thread at all.I hope yours do. Mine hit me like a full-on body slam. I understand the need for privacy as I never ID myself online but when I came here and saw that I was the only one not getting the new avatars and userids it just made me feel stupid and clueless. It was like everyone was dancing around in masks and I wasn't in on it. So, yeah, like a cruel childhood game is how it hit me.
Good morning everyone on another promising day in the life of lives and happy Monday to all.
The wonder wheel of chicken curry and roasted cauliflower issued a stern warning about care with after dinner treats with a 5.9
Last morning here with our cousins in our fancy rented house in the Lake District .
One of my sisters who lives in France and is married to a Frenchman tells me that the French have a word for our weekend - Cousinade

Have a wonderful day if you can, hugs to those that need them.
