    One cannot change the past, but one can ruin the present by worrying over the future.

    they're both clever :D......just in different ways.

    DS2 is the autistic one, yes. he thought I was talking about a cigarette, which sounds similar to cassette I suppose :D:rotfl::rotfl:

    This also sparked a memory in me of my dad showing the kids an old BT phone with a dial that he found and all 3 kids tapping at it with their little fingers trying to figure how it worked :D :rotfl::rotfl: it was a red phone....I seem to remember you had to pay extra for a coloured one? :rotfl:

    :D Oh you've reminded me when I used to have a BT Phonecard - remember those?:):rotfl:

    :DI sometimes like to put an emphasis on the word "autistic". In some circumstances, it can be the best thing and an accolade to be:D:T:T.

    I sometimes also like the phrase "pervasive development disorder"
    Disorda:D:T. Fantastic. I'm disordered:D, best way to be! I'm disordered from the dysfunctional and lack-of-ordered normal. Given the way people in general normally shop, for instance, it's so much better and more productive shopping in what is (from the perspective of 'normal shoppers') an 'unusual' way. Usual and typical is so boring and unproductive:(:).

    Thank you both for your ideas, I'm not sure how practical I will be putting them in practice. :o

    Still undecided but Mr TS quite fancies the Worzel Gummidge and Aunt Sally idea that MKS had. :eek:

    Worzel and sally should be easy. Oold or charity shop clothes plus staw.
    Not sure what mr ts hair is like but if he has a bit then hairgel, hairspray and straw.
    Aunt sally should be easy enough as I seem to remember she did have several outfits so no need to be too exact. Very badly applied over the top makeup, hat, dress and lace up boots.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    Hair gel would just make the top of his head go shiny. :rotfl: Straw might be bit of an improvement. :T

    So I just need to do my usual make up job then and borrow DD3s boots. :D

    Oh yes....phone cards. Some were highly collectible.

    Ive had a conversation with my OH tonight where we've decided we have no earthly idea where DS1s talent has originated :o he is attending Liverpool Institute for performing arts and is doing amazingly well. He has just taken part in his first performance and 'stormed it' :D:T he has reached a high enough level on his instruments and performance to teach music if he so chooses (and passes his degree and does a years teaching) So obviously genes have nothing to do with it :o

    ........he still wants to join the army

    Oh I'd have expected that (if it said "Black Tower" on the receipt:D)!:rotfl: It's good to have a shop that's actually cheaper elsewhere. Bought the 'wrong' Coffee though didn't they? - so could have been even better still. Then again, I'm just looking at it from our abnormal perspective of how we shop. That £6.61 - a lot better than what I get though!:cool: :eek:The Canderel!!_pale_:rotfl:
