Morning!
5.3 this morning. Mop fair is setting up in town. 58 and still find it exciting!
Also now trying out a libre and finally managed to get it to scan - I am borrowing my brother-in-laws old iphone - had a 4.8 on that but 5.3 on waking
Going to be interesting!

What is Mop fair ?

Back down into the 6's with 6.8 ...I did walk for 7 miles yesterday so even though had loads of carbs the walking seems to make a big difference for me .

6.2 today, but 5.9 yesterday. Still not over my cold, and I did sneak some sorbet at dessert yesteday (it was a fancy three-course dinner) so the reading wasn't bad. I'm glad I can get back to normal meals now.

Morning All. Dropped 0.1 to 7.4 today. Will be tricky this weekend as friends coming to stay for a few days but I will try and adapt without spoiling their meals. @Mini Dachs Mum glad yesterday went so well, now go and enjoy your holiday.
Happy Friday everyone.

Hello to all those with Dawn Phenomenon!
Mine was 13.2 at 7am. I try to cope with this with a 5 to 6 unit shot of fiasp, and usually by the time I get to breakfast, 30mins later, it's down to a more respectful 6 -7.
When I look at my overnight graph (libreview) there is a sharp upturn at around 6am, from an overnight average of about 7
I used to worry constantly about this, but now accept that this is just normal for me

What is Mop fair ?

It is just a travelling fair but is called 'The Mop' here because it was originally one where the servants would find new employers and carry a mop with them if they were a scullery maid etc.
