That's high, but not really 'that' high. Maybe it's type 2 then? Don't really know too much about that.
That'd be good news anyway cos I don't think you need injections for that and it's much easier to handle. Fingers crossed for you Danny.
I think around 7 is correct. My dad has diabetes, the injecting kind. Not sure which one that is.

Oh, that's if it is diabetes at all!!! Fingers even more crossed for that.

Between 3 and 7 for a normal person - 3 is probably a bit low and dangerous for a diabetic so the 7 is really mainly for them.

Incorrect. (BTW, the interest rate was recently raised above the rate of inflation. So maybe worse than a bank.)

Agreed.
No one wants diabetes but type 2 is a hell of a lot better than type 1 because as long as you eat right and exercise, you can keep good control over it.
Quote: roscoff @ January 27 2009, 7:16 PM GMTAs soon as you try and justify education economically then you're on a loser straight away. Whether it be student loans or budget capping schools. Throwing money at education actually works.
We had a great system in Newport where the oiks were put into small schools and removed from ordinary classes. Better for teacher better for student. Stopped because too expensive. Everybody suffers.

When I went to college we had a grant based on the economic status of your parents. Not perfect but designed to try and give everyone an equal chance. Fairer than today. Me thinks so. End of rant
The loan system really doesn't help out those from low income families, it actually makes it worse. Trust me.

It may be different now from when I was at uni!
Roo is really upset as she has discovered it was her friend in the hotel explosion reported in the Sun.
She is okay and slowly recovering but I have seen the hospital pics.

I somehow missed that bit - pheeeeeeeeww!
Still bad though, hope she gets better quickly and it's not too serious.
She is actually someone all us ex 4laughers know. She was Missyme25 on the 4laughs forum if anyone is interested. I honestly didn't know until today when her hospital pics showed up on my facebook news thing.
Sorry to hear that Ruby.
