    yes January 4th is D day -I did a sepearte post a few days ago, search under TSB - not that its much help with £675 a month unless you can clone yourself and get another job.

    me personally I would set a more attainable date than 3 years time :)

    I have about £1.5k saved with TSB. My mortgage rate is 4.34% so byebye savings. Makes more sense. I'll work out a new target then. I just like the round sounding 2020 tbh

    Nothing wrong with Alan Carr he makes me laugh when he swears its funny but Danny Dyer cant stand .

    Bet others heard her at the SS machine but pretended they didn't . I would have looked at them and smiled lol. :D

    I've no idea - if there was any body language from anyone else I did not see it! I'm glad no-one reacted (as far as I could see): if they had, that sort of thing makes me uncomfortable. However, I would not be surprised - 'normal' people are very good at pretending:rotfl: (...things to be the case that aren't:rotfl::rotfl:).

    No - actually I can imagine that others did not hear her. In a situation of machines whirring, people will hear the machine noise over it and were a slight distance away. People's brains filter out the irrelevance (what she's saying to the machine around them but a bit of a distance away) and hear the relevant thing - they were concentrating on paying their money at the machine they were using. Whereas the person with Asperger's (drone.. zzz...zzz...:rotfl:) sees and hears everything. They thought this was the case in my diagnosis - when things around me were bothering me, causing me to become unwell (many years ago, don't worry) and the illness let to the referral which led to... the diagnosis. I don't know why I'm posting about this on New Year's Eve:rotfl:. But, no, the subject has come up - most people, that is don't have autism, tend to miss things around them (I see and notice it, from my perspective, all the time!) - I do not know how they could not possibly know since I see and know, but apparently not, the non-autistic brain filters things out - whereas, of course, I was never not going to not hear her. I would have heard her had she been across the room and whispered... but she was at the next machine anyway. And I just laughed when she said it:rotfl:. Tell you though, fifteen years ago, I would have been uncomfortable. That sort of thing (overheard in public) would have (and did) make me uncomfortable years ago when, for me, it used to have strength (and supposedly for most people these days still has strength? - according to what they tell research that they claim to believe).
