    And bubblecars. Remember bubblecars?
    I hadn't realised they were banned. Judging by the size of garages in even the largest houses in the south-east I assumed every household must secretly own one.

    Not bubblecars. It was the disabled cars that were eventually banned.

    The final sentence of that is simply wonderful sang froid.

    I might go and stir up a stir fry in a moment! Have veggies to cook up to add to some leftovers from yesterday, including my beloved chervil! :D

    At work....
    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.
