Did you think the autism probability was high or low?

1/59 is higher than I expected.
It's lower than I expected.

There are no biological markers either, so diagnosis can be spotty.

It does tend to run in families.
If one kid is autistic theres a high chance their sibling is too.

1/59 sounds high its true. I guess this covers everyone on the spectrum from those who are a little bit aspy through to full on adult babies?

Going to Miami for a week long holiday in the second half of February. Does that make any sense?

Sounds like the best time to go, shouldn't be too monstrously hot.
I had the same idea for Cyprus at the time. Somebody moaned it'd be too cold. Missing the point.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

I really want to go to Miami :mellow:

I'll be in Georgia late January - which will be nice, if cold.

Escaping the dark English winter for some American sunshine?

Makes plenty of sense.

Single gay man granted asylum :w00t:

Also I feel quite attacked by this line by Mr Sam on his singleness: "And anyway, I am 67 and I am short and fat and too old."

This is one of a few examples of the Home Office making awful decisions denying gay men asylum because, I shit you not, they didn't have a "gay demeanour" or "look around the room in an effeminate manner" so their lives wouldn't actually be in danger :ultra:

This indicates the courts/Home Office are learning slowly.

Should have saved all the time and trouble and hooked him up to a boner meter and made him watch leather porn.

Sheilbh

He says he's gay, not a German businessman :P

You're busting my chops about my unfamiliarity with gay porn?

Though on second thought, given the age, a pupil dilation test might work better.
