Ooooh, how lovely. I see in the news today that the powers that be have backed down on the idea of selling off our forests and woodlands to private investors. Oh, JOY!Now at least we'll have somewhere to put our tents up when the full effects of all the other sweeping 'reforms' (I put that in ironic quotes because when I double checked I found I was right in thinking that 'reform' is generally a term used to imply positive changes) they've made start biting. Oldest trick in the book... propose something arse-achingly moronic, and while the whole country goes into a flap about that you can slip all the really damaging stuff through without 'em even noticing.Tuff times ahead, people - unless you're lucky enough to be in that top ten percent who just keep getting richer and richer despite recessions and cutbacks and tax hikes. Keep your tilly-lamp primed and your sleeping bag out of the puddles, and we'll have a nice old sing-song later round the campfire. There'll be rabbit stew and hedgehog hot-pot for all, so don't forget your billy can, will you?
Oh - I've also posted this in the blog section of the website I'm trying to put together... I'd appreciate any feedback if anyone goes for a looksee... Not much content yet, as a work in progress, but it'd be nice to hear it's displaying properly, that the links work and so on, if anyone can be arsed. Thanks a squill.

I had a look at your website - all seems to be working fine. I'll keep an eye on it. I also just read your short story. I'm studying a course at the moment that has a lot of people either on the spectrum, or who have children on the spectrum, and I wondered if you would mind me posting the link for your short story to the forum?
I enjoy reading your blog as well!

Hi Rosie
-
thanks for the feedback - much appreciated
Feel free to share the link /story as the fancy takes you, though I would warn you that my views on autism aren't always popular! The sites very much a work in progress, but I plan to add some pomes and maybe some flash fiction soon. I will make more effort to keep adding new blog entries too.
Thanks again.
