    You're being told that you're coming across as very childish. Irrespective of your autism you can take that on board and either apologise for disrupting the thread, or simply step away from it. They are far more constructive (and dignified) actions than trying to pick arguments where there is no reason for one.

    Take a break. Get some fresh air. You'll feel better for it.


    I would of apologised pages ago, but when everything I say was challenged thats when it got out of hand



    Then when I am the one expected to apologise, and the one who is told is childish that sets tempers flaring as it places blame on me when it wasn't me who did so.


    Then when at the end when I mentioned I was happy to end it there, I still get people having to respond.


    Why are they responding to me, if doing so will get a response? They are not making matters better.


    I wasn't the one picking an argument, I said something, it was picked at, I gave an opinion, opinion was challenged, I reworded it, it was picked at, I reword it more, get picked at.


    Like I said earlier they didn't have a problem with people mentioning things like breakfast food, but seemed to have a problem with me giving an opinion about "shopping around" and basically got "why should they" back.


    Now, thats the end of it I hope.

    No, he's in Edmonton until tomorrow. This is assumming he actually makes it onto the train he's booked on to.

    I awoke this morning to a string of texts sent at 2am saying because they hadn't spent much money (it was day1 yesterday!) they'd decided to change one of their plans even though it's paid for and they won't get a refund and instead go elsewhere for 2 nights and the hotel and train ahd been booked. They have yet to realise that DH intended giving them a lift to London on the last day from here and now they are elsewhere.....

    Not entirely sure, but either they are messing up how they buy tube tickets or they've been misinformed as it seems expensive what they're paying. And they forgot to take the vouchers I'd got them which would have got them into the Tower of London and Madam tussards cheaply so instead went to the museums.

    Which just goes to show that it's best to leave them to it ! Less stress for you and a great learning curve for them !
