Somebody’s been an April fool when the #dexcom app decides it needs permission to share data at about 5am, but the server is down. Not a good day to be anywhere outside USA/Japan & caring for a child with #T1D. 😡😩

Thank you @Sladey_10. My daughter has T1D and she’s just been picked for the county hockey squad. Seeing you playing sport at the highest level helps her believe anything is possible.

Today marks 100 years since Frederick Banting, James Collip and Charles Best were awarded U.S. patents on #insulin. They sold the patents to the University of Toronto for a symbolic $1, with Banting famously saying: 💬 “Insulin does not belong to me, it belongs to the world.”

Wow. I don’t expect much but the Home Secretary’s answer is shocking. So sad. 😢

There's a women's Rugby World Cup final this Saturday. A huge and positive moment. In the past few months we've seen some pro men's clubs go under, players losing jobs. Yet still much of the men's game ignores its sisters. Beggars belief. A rising tide lifts all boats.

For Armistice Day this week, I've enhanced a rare autochrome of London's original Cenotaph (made of plaster & wood) taken 103 years ago in 1919. Public appreciation was so great a permanent version was made from Portland stone in 1920. This is original colour, not colourised.

@_David_Lacey Genuinely torn. Only want to commit to a boycott if I know I’ll stick to my guns if England go deep into the competition. (Actually, maybe a boycott will be easier than I think…)
