Wishing the happiest of birthdays to my diabestie @ellierosehuckle as she completes 28 circuits around the sun - and of course to her twinnie Lauren.

A lot has changed over the dozen or so years of an identifiable #GBDoc community, but the core values of mutual support and a common burden shared is very much felt by all who attend #TADtalk . The #T1D community is very much alive and well.
Too many inspirational stories, performances and memories of #TAD2025 to capture in one short video, but here are some of the highlights. Thank you @MarcLungley for the fabulous photos from the event. #doc #gbdoc

Truly a joy to be part of the team that makes this wonderful event happen.
A most fabulous day at #TAD2025. Seeds planted in 2016 by @parthaskar, this event has blossomed into a beautiful tree that keeps giving. It’s been an incredible honour and joy to bring this back to @LivEveryPlay, on a street named Hope, in a city that sings #YNWA. #TAD2025

A fabulous account of a wonderful day - thank you, @faulkner_alyssa.
TAD 2025 - What a day.I wrote a recap of the fab TAD event: from inspiring talks to musical talent, laughs and advocacy - this year's @TADtalkEvents event reminded us just how powerful the diabetes community is. .#TAD2025 #gbdoc #Type1Diabetes

The wonderful building-block structure of the German Language creates words which explain complex concepts with impeccable logic. It is therefore a particular pleasure to be in Germany on this day they call #christihimmelfahrt . Yes, it's "Christ's Heaven Trip" day.👌.

When in France, I'm irrestibly attracted to @flunch; when in Germany, it's NORDSEE: fishy fast food with a German twist.

An overnight North Sea crossing to start my trip with @RosanaghL to Bad Brückenau to meet with @kIrkancenau friends. I'll never tire of watching the fabulous teamwork of the serving staff in the @POferries restaurant. Making a complex job look simple. 👏👏👏

My 6 years as a member, 2 of them as Chair, of @DiabetesUK's lived experience group came to an end yesterday with an enjoyable & constructive meeting, with a good number of new members joining the group. I hand on to my successors Allan & Liva (pic below) with confidence #GBDoc

Late night duty for me doing tidy-up and locking up at what must be one of the country's finest-looking polling stations - @kirkhamstmicks . To see the wheels of democracy turning is always reassuring. #LocalElections2025

This may not end well: we could end up with "Archie McBishopface" if the public is invited to "suggest a name" for the next Archbishop.

If you're feeling the January blues this morning, I hope this raises a smile. Jerry in Eden's high chair, hoping for some breakfast. 🤣
