I think when it comes to winter, the biggest challenges are generally there are more sort of normal illnesses like coughs and colds and things about and that can have an impact on you as a diabetic more than other people and also it is the you know not being potentially as active if you don't put mind to it in terms of going out and about more, exercising outdoors, spending more time, you know, walking to and from places rather than taking the bus, that comes harder when it's miserable weather outside.
