Never have a chip on your shoulder, when you can have a whole potato...

Just a husband, granddad, carer and #BHAFC fan!

I also compile a blog of our days out with our autistic 8 year old - https://days-out-with-an-autistic-child.co.uk
It's a sad day today. My Dad passed away yesterday evening. He was desperate to make his 95th birthday, but fell just 4 days short.
He is at peace now and re-united with Mum, his beloved wife of over 60 years marriage.
God rest the pair of you!

I know it's not much of a #waterfall, but I do like this picture taken at the Fairy Pools on Skye. We had hoped to swim in one of the pools, but too many people about for us to strip off... ☺️

My ambition is to one day count inheritance tax as one of my worries.

Blast, my finger slipped onto the repost button! Oh well...
Part of Laurence Fox's racist rant to Sangita Myska which he has since deleted, and which has been sent to the Police.

Don't RT his shame.

Or do.

I notice I get a distinct spike in views of my blog on days I promote an update on here, but I don’t really see an increase in interactions.

Sometimes it would be nice to know if people think what I’m doing is worthwhile. #autism #autistic

A rarity for me, being the other side of the camera for once.
This was taken on our trip to Scotland, at the Fairy Pools on Skye. Little One was just desperate to get in the water!!!

Makes you want to scream!!!
I organised a collection with @royalmail.bsky.social to be collected on 13/11 - they failed to show, so I rebooked for the following day. I left the parcel in my porch, as per instructions. Granddaughter then had a delivery from Temu - of course, postie then 1/

Ah, the joys of caring for an #autistic child with #ADHD and no understanding of the time of day!
I just love getting up at 3am and listen to him play Shaun the Sheep, on a loop, on his tablet.
At least he is happy - oh! and my wife, as she has gone back to sleep 😄

Well, I've done it. I've deactivated my Twitter account! Musk's latest meddling in Britain's legal process was the final straw for me...

Good riddance to bad rubbish, as my Mum used to say! 😀

Well, what's people's thoughts on tomorrow's game. Surely City can't lose 4 on the bounce, can they? Would love to see it for a MotD meltdown... #BHAFC #ManCity

Trying to pull a few others over to this place, but not a lot of Brighton content here at the moment #BHAFC

Also, spend time here...
