Sinister: Me, me, me

[Sarah Wheeler]

Hey people

It's not a bus story, rather it happened on a train, and should the person I
sat next to be on the list, I'd be more than grateful that I've been given a
chance to explain all to you (it's unlikely, and given that I can't remember
the first thing about whoever it was, there's very little chance of me ever
being able to explain).

First things first....I'm diabetic, or as my dad says, I'm a person with
diabetes....(awwww dads, they rule).  Oh yeh, and if anyone is a fan of
Wildbrain on radio 4, my dad's a contestant, and gets to say "arse" on radio!!! 

But that's by the by.  Yep, this fine day I went to get a milkshake from
Burger King at Queen Street St (Glasgow), but the bastard machine was on the
blink as per usual.  This was to be my downfall.  Anyway, I got on the train
destined for Polmont, a station half an hour from Glasgow and about 20
minutes from Edinburgh...... I remember very little about the ride.  I came
to in a little Edinburgh office sitting in a wheelchair, surrounded by
police, the contents of my bags spilled out over the desk, and I cried!!
Quite a lot!!  In dashed the ambulance men, gave me a shot of glucagon, and
dashed back out (probably on their way to a proper emergency)......turns out
that due to to much insulin, and not enough sugar (because Burger King
couldn't get me a  milkshake!!!), I'd gone "weird" on the train!!!!  AAAAH,
and I do feel for the poor person sitting next to me, 'cos I bet she thought
I was a junkie and I bet there was a whole lotta tutting, and aaaargh, I
feel bad.  But I suppose it's yet another story I can add to my list of
hypoglycaemic episodes!!!

If anyone ever sees someone wearing a B+S cartoon t-shirt, or Stow T-shirt
going crazy in Glasgow, it's me.  Please stop and say hello.  Even suggest I
have some sugar.  

And if Stuart M reads this, yes, you may write a little ditty about me, I
satisfy every criteria.........
1) I take medicinal drugs
2) I am (well, was) a student
3) I am filling my fat face with every different kind of cake
4) I am beautiful (c'mon listees, (sympathy) crush-votes for me)
5) I am slightly mental

why is it I only write when I've had a skinful.....I am sorry.

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Love Sarah xx
