The kit Jeff uses is not available in Kenya, so the Accu-Chek will be handy. Full marks to you for controlling your sugar levels. |

Morning folks,
Lovely sunny start to the day but it's rather nippy F1 Bahrain Grand Prix, Premiership and FA Cup games to keep me amused on the telly box. Will be taking another LFT test later and hoping I get that negative result. Need to get back to work and also be clear for my Laser treatment on Tuesday. Oh yeah.....gammon and chips to cook for lunch/dinner (not sure which yet) later

Amazon Alexa.......I'm a fan This is the Alexa Show 8 by my bedside.... IMG_4257 by Jeff Cranwell, on Flickr I have another in the studio and one on the boat as well. Not for their audiophile qualities (although they sound okay for what they are) but for their great integration to assist running our smart home/studio/boat. They make great picture frames and I find them invaluable for setting tasks/alarms/reminders etc

Just to expand on the Alexa question.
We have home security cctv that can display and be controlled on the Alexa devices. Smart lighting and sockets which we can control via Alexa. Our Air Con has Alexa built in so again is fully controllable by Alexa. I can monitor the boat temperature and CCTV via Alexa and switch on tube heaters if needed. All of this can be done locally from the Alexa devices (also forgot to mention Alexa works on an Amazon Firestick as well) or from the Alexa App on your smart phone. You can make routines up, so for instance....If one of your cameras detects motion it will then instruct a smart light (of your choice) to switch on. You can set the level of brightness or the colour of the light as well (depending on what smart bulb you have) By far the best thing for me is when I'm cooking dinner. I can just tell Alexa to remind me when I should check on something....Invaluable when cooking a Sunday roast whilst watching the Footie
