On the whole... I don't really want to mix with aspies... because they're either super-weird, or just cruising and suckling the teat of entitlement. I'd like to meet with geeky entrepreneurs I guess....

But I would like people that didn't think I was rude when I did or didn't do what they expected me to....

I think its a great plan. It could be a meet and greet with a short talk from someone who worked with aspis on ' bar ettiquette' or ' making small talk' the sort of things you would know best about what questions you wanted asking. This would equip you, or aspies, so appear less as you describe.


I always think you fit in amazingly here pn. We adore you, so in the np thread you get it pretty darn right.

Besides, you didn't ask about who you wanted to mix with, you asked about a buisness op. viva provided the frame work for the unasked question which made me think.....pn could do that you know, she could.

I come a cropper when I go to the scarey boards.... and we all know where they are don't we

I'd be tempted to cut her some slack. Promotion in education doesn't mean anything remotely like what promotion in other industries/organisations does.

She's getting no slack from me. All she does is TEFL for 5 years in 5 different countries, then comes back and does another pointless degree in something she is interested in but which has no prospect of leading to a more sophisticated job. She's basically been living a perpetual gap year / student lifestyle for 16 years without bothering to establish a career - she can do this because she is being bankrolled at the moment and her view is that e.g. She doesn't need a pension because the inheritance will cover it. Pretty silly if you ask me. There will be some money left but even if she gets 100% of it, which I think she probably will, it's not going to be enough to keep her in the lifestyle she thinks it will.

Ip implants.

It would involve a plan. I would help with people bits if you went for it, i would help you.

What if a private provider was willing to provide schooling for the amount the state pays per pupil, any reason why we shouldn't contract out the whole thing?

The problem is the private provider would want all the middle class pupils with parents who value education and can afford to chip in for extras.

Awwww.... you'll feel guilty if it turns out to be serious!!



He'll see some sights down at the Hospital.... there's always an angry person, a quiet one with blood dripping, a whiney child and somebody with an annoying accent or cough

Its just a kod allergic reaction. If his tongue or throat were swollen i would be horrified, thats happened to me a few times and its scary. Big lips is just a bit funny. He's decided not to go to hospital . If i were him i would take antihistamine.

Kod should read mild. Sometimes i even amaze myself.

If i made a language up it would be amazing.
