    Do we know which carte noir is the trigger for the multibuy not showing? I bought 2 of the decaf but the multibuy showed for me.

    On one shop I bought 2 of the ordinary carte noire and the multibuy was recognised on APG. On the next shop I bought the ordinary and the expresso and the multibuy was not picked up on APG, so looks like it is the expresso, but don't know if the expresso and the decaf works, perhaps someone else has tried that combo.

    My DS2 has this 'bouncy gait' too savvy although his is quite pronounced. I believe it to be down to a lack of sensory feedback rather than a motor problem. I also believe that's why he gets so much from the amount of vigorous trampolining he does. I think he gets the sensory feedback from that that he doesn't get from normal movement.
    Ive developed quite a geeky fascination with sensory issues over the years through trying to understand/help DS2. :D

    Yep, makes sense! He is more along the autism spectrum than I am. I'm 'just a little bit' - as I've said before, just enough to give me special abilities (though sadly not of the level of savantism) whilst not being enough to leave me with severe learning disability. I pass for a 'normal person' - and did so for a small number of decades.

    That said, my 'little bit' autistic is actually that I have no body language reading of others at all. Well - I say 'at all', obviously I can see the real obvious - such as someone smiling, happy, someone crying their eyes out (and not in a 'crying with happiness' sense, which I can detect) I know they are sad. But beyond that...

    My brain is certainly different, I discovered! But just how different it is I didn't realise at the start. I suspected I may have AS in the mid 1980s (before anyone even really knew of AS), for a brief few moments, but ruled it out and never mentioned my brief thought to anyone as I feared having a disability and being sent to a special school. Times were certainly different then (in my perception at the time they were anyway). I felt that if you were disabled, you were cast out.

    Now I am aware my brain is very very different to the vast majority of people's... and it's different in so many aspects that I didn't realise before. My chemical messagers probably travel a circuitous route to get to their destination... but get to it they do - I simply have a road closure set up in my brain and it functions, in its own way, perfectly well!:j:j I rather like having AS, I couldn't imagine how it must be without it, and I think it's a lot better having it than not having it. I would not want to be any other way - certainly couldn't imagine how complicated it must be to be bombarded by body language constantly and to be unable to concentrate and focus on tasks effectively. I wouldn't want the bombardment - I am happy not having it, and perhaps you'd never know - I can drive, I can speak, walk normally (at my normal pace!), do things everyone else can. Good on me.:T

    Nope don't want referrals or getting banned for asking for them.

    I hope you got a few though as you have nice legs.

    Tell me about it!:rotfl:That topic is my sixth current 'special interest' topic. See - able to multitask!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::j

    [Edit: wonder if DS2 has, or at some future point of his chosing will decide to have, a fascination in body language through trying to understand 'everyone else'.:D:rotfl: Just the subject of body language mind you, no actual knowledge in how it works or what it communicates:rotfl: (sort of :cool:).]

    Right... back to money-saving!!:D

    I love it when they buy this, totally unaware of the return it could have given them. If only they bought other items on their shopping than the ones they did.:)
