Morning all
Snap @rhubarb73 : 6.2 for me ( but without the treat of peaches last night) so no breakfast as I’m above my self imposed limit of 6.0. Got a roast to look forward to later though.
@PenguinMum I’m glad you and your friend enjoyed your time together, she must have been so pleased you came.
@shelley262 I hope you have a better night tonight - the car journey, probably didn’t make it easier. Good luck with the recipe section today.
As if diabetes wasn't bad enough. Emirates doesn't even have a cheese shopThanks. Season ticket holder here too!

Serious post today.
26 years ago on this day a young man from the north of England died in hospital, his family decided to donate his organs for transplantation. I received his liver, his and his family's gift enabled me to see my children grow up, marry and have children.
So today is a mixed emotional day for me.
Transplantation works, one of the minor side effects caused by the anti rejection drugs is diabetes, I say minor because the alternative to not taking the drugs is death.
Please think about organ donation and discuss it with your family.
A gentle 6.0 for me today.
Have a good day as I shall try to.
Me three! Also take magnesium (although too much can lead to unexpected toilet visits!)
@OrsonKartt - I have suffered with cramps for many years and tried all sorts of so called remedies. I find this what eases them is a magnesium oil spray rubbed into my legs and to take water a couple of times a day with a pinch of pink Himalayan salt.Hi... I'm a similar boat I think. I've been using pink Himalayan salt and swapped to an American lake salt which is meant to be higher in other minerals. I only get cramps occasionally but its a pain when it happens... I'd welcome any specific thoughts ....
Don't know about low carb but if it's a good pasties your after you could do worse than the pasty shop in Padstow where I used to live for a few years one visit there and my brother in law's life as a vegetarian came to an abrupt end. I did tell him repeatedly to spit the meat out but he just wouldn't listen.Are you still in Cornwall? We arrive next Saturday- Have you found anywhere selling low carb pasties?

Edit. @Goonergal, not sure if a magnesium pill is as efficient as an absorbent magnesium spray. Maybe give it a whirl. I get Mine fron H&B.
