Soolin - Can't make it to the Irish con, wish I could. I can't really afford it, unfortunately, what with hotel, membership, ticket AND all the other costs on top. But, I should be getting my compensation money for having to move house before DWcon proper, so I won't have to worry about paying for my hotel room for that, at least.
Erme - That 2.80 is for a kilogram bag, which lasts me a week! Not just one meal! And this is our every-other-year original Discworld fanparty. Sorta. *grin* There are Discworld conventions in other countries, as Soolin's mentioned, but this was the first and is the one I try to attend every alternate August Bank Holiday.
Speaking of August Bank Holidays... I'm hoping I can make AFPCamp, but we'll see. SO much fun, even when you do have to rest every few minutes, lol.

Good weekend where my joints gave me less problems than usual...apparently being in a caravan for a few nights is better for me than being at home!
Unfortunately, middle son went into a rage this morning as he got very OCD about something and now I ache from head to foot.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.0 -

Erme - I think the meals trialia was talking about are that price for a huge pack, I think I saw an advert that implied you could serve a family of four with one pack so give yourself slightly smaller portions and you could get a very filling meal for 60p
Lamewolf - don't worry about the thread, I'm over it now thanks for caring though

I'm hoping Kalina will come again this year. I haven't booked my hotel room yet, just waiting for her to decide whether she will or not. I'm really looking forward to it - especially cosplaying Adora Belle!Homosexual, Unitarian, young, British, female, disabled. Do you need more?0 -
OK, this is totally pathetic as far as achievements go, but I know a lot of you here will understand it being something of a triumph for me.:D
We have little air vent latches at the top of our patio doors, which for nine years, I have been unable to operate myself, having to ask Mr LW to open/close them for me.
This morning, I managed to open them myself!!!!!:j:beer::T
It hurt like pure hell to stretch up to do it, but I managed it! Albeit with a fair amount of swearing. :whistle: Lol, the tricep extension exercises on the WiiFit must finally be paying off!:D

I know I couldndt have done it! I cannot reach up with my left arm passed shoulder height, and then as I am left handed predominantly I just cannot co-ordinate myself with my right!.
sorry to sort of jump in on here, I stumbled across you the other day, when looking for Mary-op.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0
