Thank you for the compliment
The hard part is giving people a chance to help you because it is difficult to explain what help I need, as most people get very impatient, because we only have brief interactions with a lot of people in the course of the day. And it's just not possible to explain to each and every one.
Consequently I shut up and put up, not because I am being a wimp, but because I have to expend so much energy to get through the day as regards strangers. It is not their fault, nor mine, but it does leave me just wanting to hide away for peace, and I let things go that I maybe shouldn't.

Except when on Holliday and swimming in public swimming pools in France, then it's SPEEDO season.
One of your best yet. Bang on the money!"...Thank you, and here we are for the 515 at Kempton Park, on a chilly but dry evening folks,
with JJRaak just in shot, going down from the parade ring to the track to line up with the others.,
Riding out in Sheik MoKarbs younger brothers Sheik Fu-r-karbs, colours.
It's an upcoming stable, making significant progress, over the last few seasons.
had plenty of good results this year and a good following among those who know, as well.
JJRaak has had an ok season so far, stepped up in class, July just gone, when he won the
Racing Posts amateurs 40 hba1c class 1 race , on his first time out without blinkers
Stablemate, @Saskia, has been booked to ride in this seasons DCUK handicap hurdle ,
running overseas for the first time this year.
Hopefully we'll see more of her later on this season.
Runners are all lined up, and the starters raised his flag...And.. There off....
JJRaak off to a poor start, running with the pack, as they all approach Cereal for the first time..
Oh dear, and a few have fallen there, but JJ took that in his stride, and moves in to middle of the chasing pack,
Progressive, Disease and Amputation leading the way, Prediabetic, Normal, FBg, Brainfog, & DUK, running just ahead of him as they take next.
.and Brainfog fell, Brainfog fell, and JJ just avoided coming down in the melee.
at the halfway marker, its Amputation falling away, as the two front leaders swap places, Disease is now running ahead of progressive, FBG, moves into 3rd, Normal follows ahead of the chasing pack, pre diabetic has fallen away and DUk looks to be struggling keeping up,
...And amputation has pulled up, he was running poorly, and that looked nasty,, he is out of this race as far as we are concerned.
JJRaak is timing his run it seems, trying to take on FBG, oh and they bump on the rails,
but JJ has moved in front of FBg and seems to have the better legs ,
DUK dropping back rapidly, and looks beat from here.
coming to the penultimate fence and its now Progressive & Normal, neck and neck, with Disease and JJRaak, moving swiftly into 4th, the rest a way off the pace now..oh dear, oh dear and DuK, has taken the wrong course..jockeys has now noticed, and DuK is no longer part of this race.
Running on, all the jockeys have their whips out as they race to the last, Progressive pushing on as he takes the last..
OMG, and he's stumbled and progressives jockeys been thrown, the horse is down, Normal and JJRaak, jump wide and miss the trouble but Disease has collided with progressive , and it all over for them two,
Now it's just these two as they go for the wire, JJRaak has the rail, Normals jockey looks over, but he appears to be struggling,
i think Jjraak has the beating of him, and pulling away as they comes the wire..and it's a win for JJRaak, by a Length,, Normal gamely racing on for 2nd, and the rest strung out like a washing line, waiting to finish.
And the totes are in.
JJRaak 6.1..
A nice return for some lucky punters.
Back to the studio.."

5.0 today which was quite a surprise. Relatives over from Dublin. My auntie (2nd mum) who loves nothing more than fish and chips from Blackpools best chippy. I asked for a small fish and peas fully intending to take off the batter. The light, crispy, delicious batter that hugs the fish so perfectly. A tough call. So anyway I expected my fbs to be much higher this morning ;-) Especially as it was washed down with red wine,,, all night!!! Great night.
Auntie and cousin gone now so business as usual.
Saw this scrolling through and thought the T1d posse on our wonderful thread might like a read.

Yesterdays graph has a rise in the morning when I was frantically preparing for auntie coming (stress). And 2nd rise is the fish! Peas, nuts and wine! I got off lightly battered, just like the haddock.
Today's graph tickety boo.
My BMi is 22.4 I am 5 feet 10 inches and 32 inch waist, I suppose weight not too bad but still loosing weight on this diet even with all the snacking. All this would be more acceptable if my BG was low 5 and 4 figures. In reading information the high 5 and mid 6 seems non damaging, but what happens in between taking readings worries me and I'm not sure I can afford to self fund a libra monitor.
Snacking may be the culprit. If you could afford 1 sensor (14 days) at about £42 (asda last week) and your mobile is compatible you would learn so much.
