So my lad, Tom, has Downs which is clearly a lifelong genetic condition. He also has SLD.
Later I shall spend the evening completing, again, a 24 page Capability for work questionaire. Reasonable chance we will have to go for an interview - Tom doesn't speak to strangers!
My favourite section is titled "Controlling your bowels and bladder and using a collecting device."

They tell liesAt exactly 16:00 we are going to have seven hours of continuous snow
What on earth is going on when good people like you have to suffer through things like you describe.

I understand why it's necessary but a little joined up thinking would see those with a lifelong condition flagged on the system. It would save the DWP a fortune.
I cannot understand why once is not enough either, maybe it is their way of creating employment, for themselves.

I wish Mrs D all the best and a good recovery. You sound like a very caring husband Drago. Respect to you and your wife is lucky to have you. Best wishes to both of you.

Aw shucks! Thanks guys and gals. Mrs D is my lady, and she means the world to me.
On a happier note there's a joint SAR exercise outside Solihull on Saturday. If the snow isn't so bad that it defeats a Smart car I shall be there.

Just watching the BBC 10 o'clock news and it looks rough in Cornwall and Devon.
Heading your way they have just said.

The local club advocates the use of Aurora Pink balls when there's snow. One a bit further away says Fire Orange is better.At 08.00 it was miserable, foggy and very cold (-2 I believe). So I phoned the golf club to tell them I wont be there for the competition. The pro told me there are some people already out.
How anyone can play golf with snow on the ground ???,
09.30 now and its definitely brightening up.
My BIGGEST problem is that last night, knowing I wouldn't be playing golf, I had a few drinkpoos while watching the football on tv..... and now I just dont feel like doing anything

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Nothing here yet. It might just miss us because we are in the foothills of the Cambrian mountains. Quite often we tend to be sheltered. Watch this spacemi suppose. I might wake up tomorrow to 3 inches of snow.
