#NHS project manager living in #Hanwell, west #London, but originally from #Derry, N Ireland. #T1Diabetes on CGM & Insulin Pump.
Just reflecting on where we were 5 years ago. Living alone, I was actually beginning to recover from #COVID19 in #London but was v worried. about how I could get fresh milk! Was so grateful to have this thru my letterbox. Forever thankful to the neighbour who came to my rescue! ❤️

Remember all these headlines describing a brief rise in government borrowing costs as being "market mayhem", followed by a week of demands for Rachel Reeves to quit?
Well one week later and it turns out UK gilts are now outperforming every other G7 country this year, aside from the US

Beautiful day yesterday with @flippper1.bsky.social tramping around #KewGardens. Visited the #Lockerbie memorial to the crew and also popped into an art exhibition! Great day! 😊

Quick question to anyone with #Type1Diabetes on here who uses #Dexcom #CGM: are any of you experiencing the same supply issues that I am? Thankfully they were able to send me 2 G6 sensors thru the Royal Mail but no sign of my regular delivery due on 21st Dec! #gbdoc @flippper1.bsky.social

#TransportForLondon has a #JourneyPlanner on its website and occasionally I use it but am always amazed at the crazy options it gives! Gotta wonder at the algorithms it uses! Crazy! But then I suppose if you don't know the transport system you have to trust what it says! 🤷♀️🤦♀️

Tears are tripping me once again because of my annual viewing of #Klaus on @netflix.com. If you are looking for a #Santa movie for kids of all ages, this quirky little movie has to be the one. 🥲

Just a friendly reminder, thanks to a #gbdoc member:
🔹Do you have all the #diabetes supplies/medications you need for the festive break?🎄
🔹Do you need to place a repeat prescription request? Or an order for your diabetes tech supplies? 💙

Bl***y typical! We've had weeks of grey overcast weather - yet today, when I have my #diabetes #RetinalScreening & hence will have my pupils dilated, the sun appears! #GBDoc #T1D 😎

It took a bit of finding, but this is, I believe, what some people call #TheSun. Those of us in the UK may have heard about the concept but not seen any actual evidence in some time! ☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️🤔

#strictlycomedancing #bbc your organisation NEEDS to have one week, maybe week 9, where ONLY the judges get to decide who goes out. This season proves popularity has everything to do with who advances. #PATHETIC #petewicksout #strictly

Shame! This proves the point once again that #StrictlyComeDancing is not a UK dance competition, it's a #PopularityContest. And #PeteWicks presumably has his army of supporters voting him through each week, regardless of how badly he dances. #BBCOne
