What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

I know who Alice Cooper is - my line was from a Roy 'Chubby' Brown parody of the song by Smokie, Living Next Door To Alice which you can see on You Tube. I will not post a link as the song contains very, very strong language and even the title on You Tube has a 4 letter word in it which precludes me from posting a direct link to it.

Funny that because Roy chubby Brown is even older than Alice but coincidently born on the 3rd of Feb but in 1945.

No more mid 20 blood sugars if you dont mind young lady. You frightened the bloody life out of me. Glad you are better now. The Libre can be really useful when they behave themselves. At other times it can be like herding cats. I hope you get on with yours.

Buenos días a todos y les deseo a todos ustedes que sean mis pequeñas pulgas españolas. The week the circus has come to my local parish. I bribed the ring master donned my finest spandex mankini and this morning climbed into the cannon. Sadly things did not go as intended and I only ended up being shot onto my next door neighbours roof. I notice she has 3 loose tiles and my blood sugar are also 3mmols.
