...I know it can be hard work sometimes but each and every one is unique, they come with their own set of problems but so do most of our kids, theirs just take more understanding, time and patience. The rewards in the change in some of our kids are enough for us, even the tiny ones

Sorry I cropped out most of your post. Have to say everything you just wrote was so blooming lovely!
I agree with all of it especially no two are the same. When I did my course in March they said to me their motto is "When you have met one child with Autism...You have met one child with Autism" And I do not think people understand unless they have dealt with it. Also agree with the last bit, even for me as a parent it is so challenging but when he achieves something it's the best thing in the world. Admittedly we have less problems with him that a severely Autistic child but it's problems for us never the less. People just don't understand the issues that surround ASD. Yesterday I took him to B&Q to look at some paint for his room as thats the one that has the leak, when we got in there he was so overwhelmed, the bright lights and all colours even smells and sounds, he freaked out (both good and bad way) and I had to resort to basic language, short simple commands etc but this one lady just stopped gobsmacked and stared at us both. I just returned the stare and she soon picked her gormless face up and walked off! It did make me mad but at the same time I can understand as people can't exactly see his disability, but it just highlights the lack of knowledge.
Anyway sorry for taking up the space people!

Hope CS gets better soon.
Also Happy Birthday to WhoopsieQueen :beer:

Just been to T near the Big Brother house (hope that is enough of a clue).

6.45 and they are clearing the fresh fish counter, carefully transferring the fish into ice trays and taking it round the back, it didn't reappear at the whoopsie fridge. SO where does it go?

Whoopsie counter was busy with lots of red faced men trying to grab bargains. One lady filling her trolley, but she had a lot of snacks in her trolley that I haven't seen on a deal, so I didn't think she was from round here.

Picked up some whoopsied flowers, but they've gone droopey in water, so don't know if that was wise.

and I found a scanner - just behind the escalators.

Is the scanner working?:T:T

If the reports be on Sly News I suspect their source is Harrys cousins best mates sisters answering machine......I'll wait till there's a real news service reporting it.

Can't swim, despite being a wench with large inbuilt floataion devices, paddling pools are my limit, I'll stick to being a landlubber.
