For some reason the photos won't load in order so this week's post will be in the wrong order of the days but here's the recap of this week:
Yesterday we went to have lunch with one of mums friends that we hadn't seen in 2 years
Had a bit of a diabetic nightmare this week. I had to go on multiple walks a day beacause my blood sugars were so high. I also had to change my cgm while we were in England so I did that. That cgm fell off after a day BUT I'd only brought one cgm with me as I had to change it 2 days before coming home so I thought it would be fine. IT WASN'T!!!!!! That cgm fell off my arm after a day so I was doomed. I also hadn't bought my finger pricker so I couldn't manually check my blood sugars. So it meant I had to spend over 48 hours without knowing what my blood sugars were, which was a bit scary!!!!!! THEN we came home so I put a new cgm on BUT it failed because the needle didn't go into my arm properly so I had to change it AGAIN. And then that cgm worked but blimey what a nightmare!!!
Finally found franui in the shop (they've only existed for a few months I think but they're always really hard to find). They're frozen raspberries covered in white chocolate and then covered in milk chocolate, they were lovely we ate the whole pot in like 10 minutes lol!
We said goodbye to Hastings until Christmas!
Me and my brother never take photos together so this was a rare occasion.
On our last day in England the weather was a bit grotty but we wanted to do something anyways so we went into town and the old town. It wasn't raining much when we left the house but on our way back to the car from the old town we got drenched because it was pouring down with rain!!!
Tried this milk as we don't have it in France and I LOVED it. It tastes exactly like porridge and bonus, its sugar free !!
Celebrated mum's birthday.
Went to Sainsbury's. We always find loads of clothes while we're there because they always seem to have a clearance section!!
We went to Blackbrooks garden center and they had all their Christmas stuff out and we bought some Christmas soaps.
Had Cornish pasties and mash (one of my favourite meals ever).
Went to the Ashford designer outlet and bought loads of clothes. They were about to open their Christmas market so the Christmas atmosphere was there. I always go into le creuset and dream I could buy all their stuff but it costs a fortune so I never buy anything lol.
Went to tkmaxx and I bought a watch and then we went to poundstrechers and I bought some Christmas grinch pyjamas for me and mum.
Played the game of life and I won!

Had the best roast dinner ever!!
Also had a battered sausage and chips from the fish and chips shop.
Bought the essentials as a type one diabetic. I always see English type one diabetics praise this brand so I had to give it a go and I had a hypo so I got to try these and I have to say I'm veryyyy impressed within minutes my blood sugar was going up again! Will buy more of these when I'm back in England.
As I said in last week's post, me and mum spent our Saturday afternoon going to loads of charity shops to buy loads of books again. I think me and mum must have bought like 30 books each on this trip so I'm definitely excited to start reading them all!!!
Not captured this week: me and my brother getting tickets to go see the Brazil vs Tunisia football match in Lille in 10 days!!
