Hi ngcles, L.

Thnx for sharing your interesting post, realising similarities with Tim Fisher, I'm not real familair with him or many other polly's for that matter, tho can relate your realisations when others who a have mentioned their quirks etc, hmmm, can relate to that, but it never got my attension to think about it much, tho since being diognosed, some experiences are flashing back and great to eventually realise. that said I still find it rather difficult to let it soak in,, not sure if I have to, but good to atleast know I'm not the only one with weird thought tendencies, helps the sanity side of things..
Our ages are close, I still 56 until early next year, was diagnosed only 3 weeks ago now.

Hmmm, never heard of Synesthesia, Quite sure I don't have any of that, tho interesting and brings to mind of those with a 'photgraphic memory' prob similarlarly related in some ways ?

Glad to hear your education turned for the better - mine was opposite, missed 'ducks' by 2% at end of primary before highschool, and highschool just went down hill very fast, everything was going bad at home etc, done 2 months of yr 9 and I dropped out in march at age 14, because the Italians could put me on the books full-time at that age. Was part time after school and saturdays for 9 months prior & became a foreman at age 18, had three other under me, older as well. never been backto education since, just like working hands on, jack of all trades - profession at none !
Always wanted to get into science, and techy things, but yeah, all went wrong. Does not bother me much, but sometimes wonder where I could have ended up ?

Thnx for your insight, experience etc,
All the best
