Likely you had something on that finger that gave the 9.8 reading trick...it often happens.

Morning all. Onset of Autumn delayed although Wednesday does not look propitious. 5.4 today from the meter, more Regatta than Arc'teryx but serviceable for now.
@DJC3 True dat! What is your plan ‘going forward,? What were you doing 6 months ago that obviously suited you?
Mainly paddling my own canoe without fully buying into LCHFs gurus. Developed a bad case of knowing the difference between data, information and knowledge. and not applying it. Tacit knowledge is way more important in this game IMHO

Good morning all. 5.5 today. Starting keto diet at 20g carbs a day today.
@ianpspurs, thanks for the kind words. Dads bday rolled into a 2 day event, with some people showing up a day late due to mixup. But a special time definitely.
Congratulations @alf_Josiah to you and your bride, what a great life you have made together.
Light Misty rain here, long walk for me.
Hope everyone is well. Have a great day everyone.

good morning everyone 
4.3 today
out for lunch today come rain or shine, and that's what we've had already this morning, rain or shine, nothing in between, either it's sunny or it's piddling down
Hope your Monday is a good one
