    Nice neighbours too?

    In that snow and ice I became a local delivery service, people to doctors, dogs to vet, pet food to the cottage to the left, groceries almost daily for lots of people....and several times a day I went to haul people out of hedges/ditches in the land rover. Then, wen I had to drive in to a ditch to avoid someone else skidding (little car, and DH's LR could have done damage) I called a neighbour who came chugging a long and had me out in under ten minutes. We were all brilliant neighbours, it was quite cosy and fun.

    Another Q:

    Is the krypton factor much harder now than it used to be?

    As a kid I used to love it- and was pretty good at most of the challenges IIRC...

    Is it harder now? Or is this just proof that an excessive lifestyle and way too many kids kills off a huge proportion of brain cells? :)

    ETA: Why does GMTV Ben present it?!

    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.

    In bed by the look of it! I popped in over at the 'other place,' but I'm finding this one a bit OTT & tiring ATM. Others have more patience & stamina than me.:o
