| I think I'm gonna rather be in a minority here, judging by the other comments on this thread.... BTW, although I was the right age, I never got exposed to the TV series, as Mum didn't think it was the "right sort of thing" for a girl to watch..I remember the theme tune but not much else... Then anot... |

On "Autobot" I am Rianbot, a level 5 (or 6 'bot, and on "Decepticon" I am a level 10 Decepticon called Blazer.

| I think there is a lot in the saying 'Birds of a feather, flock together'. I think it takes an Aspie to know one. I have come to this conclusion because before I knew I had AS, I had made friends throughout my life and the ones I remain closest too are Aspies mostly! It was only after I came out an... |

| Ok, that's it. I've had enough. When I was first diagnosed with AS last year, I told my mum who seemed shocked, (as I expected) and said she needed time to come to terms with/get over the shock. I gave her several pieces of infdormation, and left her two books with bookmarks at the points I thought ... |

Smooth silk or smooth cotton. i can't abide scratchy or harsh cotton. I can tolerate cotton/acrylic mixtures but it needs to be at least 50/50. I scour chariyty shoips for silk because it's expensive new but I don't often find it.
