Random Irritations

I’ve been up since 3:45. Chronic indigestion. I wasn’t sure if it was a heart attack. The pain was intense. Chomped a load of Gaviscon and then, about half an hour ago, belched from my boots.
Gall bladder issues?
Thats how my wifes started. I won't say any more as I dont want to put you off getting it checked out if it repats.
 
By stating that, being autistic, the BBC failed to prevent his behaviour?
Isn't that a classic "victim" stance?

Some of the stuff he claimed was just beyond belief. Sounds like a really nasty p.o.s. who is now tried playing any card he has to salvage what is left of his career.
See ya, won't miss ya.
But there will be others of course :-(
 
I can only really say it here, I must keep my social media network clear .. but today I feel “flat” I don’t feel confident about getting a new job, I am a man in his 50s. I see loads of LinkedIn profiles saying they do what I do, but no track record of results like I have.
I was asked to hand over all my personal software, that I wrote based on my experience to speed up the decision making process. The young guy who is taking on my role said he would learn what I do … he doesn’t want to learn he wants to be spoon fed.
I am not seeing the positives, I guess when you are all ways pushing to be positive the negatives have to come and balance it all out.
Today is just the result of a punishing week trying to maintain my hours, and cover hospital trial runs .. then a busy weekend of entertaining. And the dryer has decided to misbehave ( and I cannot get it out to fix it 🤯)
 
Good, through my eldest son I’ve been around “neurodivergence” for 24 years, what Wallace is trying to do is disgraceful. I’m not saying autistic people cannot do things that seem inappropriate to “normal” people but it’s not an excuse for his sleazy behaviour.
I'm not an expert at all, but I've never heard autism used as an excuse for groping and excess flirting before. If anything I thought autism was closer to social awkwardness and shying away from human contact!

It is all that and more, my son used to struggle with social boundaries, standing too close to people, putting his finger in other kids mouths, coming out of the toilet with his trousers down because he was struggling to pull them up. Etc etc. We learned eventually to take it in our stride, (but other parents didn’t like it.) Once he learned to “behave normally” (by about 9 years old) he never repeated those sort of behaviours again. If Gregg was ASD once he was told that his behaviour was unacceptable I don’t think he would have repeated it.
 
Our dog hasn't been right for a while, arthritis taken over his back legs and just generally getting on abit. Went off his food this morning, and we sadly lost him at lunchtime. Just went into the garden where I begged him not to leave just yet, and he just sort of went as me and the wife held him.
He's been through everything with us, the ups of bringing the kids home from hospital, he was the first one in the family they met, to the lows of other family members leaving us, such a great way of comforting us without ever saying a word.

This pain is unreal.

Ah mate, what an absolute choker, just reading your post made me well up. It’s never easy at the end. Just try to take comfort from the happy life he had with you all. That’s all we can do, give them the best life possible, and at the very end not let them suffer.

That is very sad. I can't put a like to it.

Thanks mate. We had him from 10 weeks and he was going to be 13 in December. Just leaves a huge hole.

So sorry for your loss 😢

Very well said, condolences to you @Bazz, it’s absolutely heartbreaking.
