    But lots and lots of people do!

    Not just here, but loads of bods on the financial threads!



    I know it's disheartening when one person takes agin you, and that one person grows and grows and seems to dwarf the many others who value you......
    ........but the agin person is really the size of an amoeba, whereas the people who value you are the size of a mountain!

    We need a 'love' button. Thank you, Pyxis.

    You are loved, Generali. We have too much history for you to leave us. :love:

    Sorry to be quite so pedantic, but having heard the same thing on radio I'm getting a trifle tired of it. He wasn't a lorry driver, he was a terrorist. Even his day job was van driver, not lorry driver. Any other atrocity and its terrorist or bomber. Pedant mode off.
    .

    Sorry, Bugslet.:o
    You're quite right. What I meant to say was 'the driver of the lorry', and didn't mean to imply that he was a lorry driver by profession. I'm not surprised you're fed up with it. It casts a horrible slur.

    I shall amend my post toute de suite.

    So nice to see you back Gen even if it is only briefly. I hope you don't stay away too much though as I have learned so much from your posts not just in NPT but also the other more highbrow threads (where I tend to read rather than post in case I show myself up as uneducated!).

    Gorgeous day here today but alas I was not able to enjoy most of it as I pushed myself too far physically and ended up collapsed in the back garden whilst trying to strim it and had to be rescued by Josh after I managed to drag myself to the back door and raise the alarm. Usually I 'lose' one leg when I do too much but today I 'lost' both legs and couldn't move either of the beggers.

    I'd only been out there 5 mins.
    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.

    I'm likely to be silent for a while as doing the PIP dance. Today read 3 sets of notes on how to fill the form in. Tomorrow I try to put it into practice.
