My current position is far better for my mental health too. It’s interesting viewing how my former colleagues work from an outside perspective; they’ll often complain they’re too busy to attend training or go to meetings, or that they want extra staff but they’re quite often found sitting around chatting. 

*Sees post by Krispy, stars it then scrolls down to read it. I nearly bought a sheepskin for our trio to lay on, but I’m not sure if they’d like it and if they did, if they’d share?

Meal: Rarely edible

My specialist subject, going on holiday to “bone”, but never getting the opportunity.

I’m not going to lie, when I read “condom caddy”, my brain thought in golfing terms - “may I recommend the Extra Safe, sir?”

Let’s just say that on cruises with a significant population of the elderly, coming back to port with fewer people than when you left isn’t as rare as you might think 

A former nursing colleague of mine went to work on cruise ships for a year. Her experiences have earned her my utmost respect...

Ironically, one of them is Chad Michaels... 

I may phone the place I’ve been referred to tomorrow; it seems something of a postcode lottery as my brother was referred, assessed and diagnosed in a matter of months 

Kudos for being brave enough to try. Sending you internet hugs, in lieu of real ones

Please don't make me scroll back up

Thank you. I have been palmed off repeatedly in the past by my GP and it was only after contacting the Autistic Society did I get anywhere. Through the counselling I have had for PTSD I have come to understand so much more about myself and this is going to be a continuation of that journey. It won’t necessarily change…

I mentioned it in a casual aside on GroupThink, but I finally managed to get a referral from my GP for an adult Autism assessment. Here’s hoping the next step won’t take too long...

Great to hear from you, and that things are going your way! 

Looking good! I've picked up so many gems in charity shops, and the best thing is I don't get all precious about wearing them because they're not new

I'm so with you on the laughing at my own jokes; there's one stuck in my head right now that I giggle at whenever it pops into my consciousness... 

I’d be like the mother in 28 Weeks Later, immune to the virus due to a freak genetic anomaly (hopefully without the being killed by the first person I meet)

I’ve been playing a lot of cribbage on my phone recently, and I think I’m getting quite good at it!

I’m sure it’s as delicious as it looks, I’d pay for a lemon one right now!!
