    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    LOL.

    The lost city of Felixstow doesn't quite have the same allure as Atlantis.

    It's pointless posting just to get the count up.

    No, not the end - that was the start, the background if you like. Now we move into recession proper, stocks have been wound down - what happens now?

    Scrappage may enable some of those unsold cars in parking lots to be shifted - no effect on imports - no extra required.

    Petrol tax hits hauliers, hits retail, hits inflation. Effect on imports - less imports.

    Ten years of debt to be paid back - the latest tax increases are just the start - effect on imports? Well if Mr. Average has less money and feels lucky to have a job maybe he / she won't be buying that new discretionary purchase anytime soon.
