Hypos used to be great, any excuse to eat chocolate and sweeties.. but in reality, and with better control and thinking of the long term effects/affects (sorry @Annette I can never get it right!) liquids work fastest – lemonade or lucozade.. but after some very bad experiences, I have found the phone covered in honey, where my lovely husband has tried to rub it on my gums/shove it in my mouth while phoning 999… my son now raids my handbag for hidden sweets, but jelly babies and fruit pastils are fab.. if you can hide them from a 6yr old… lucozade is stashed in my car and all round the house.
