Celebrating the genius of Gerry Anderson on his birthday with 60 minutes of Spectrum Sounds and Terrahawk tunes in one mighty Mysteron mix.....    

  Been a wee bit quiet on the whole house moving front at the moment, partly due to having absolutely no idea what's going on but mainly due to the fact that there's probably going to be pretty harsh legal consequences to how it's been dealt with by the housing officer so reckoned it was best to keep quiet and make notes in the meantime. However all that seems to have changed a few weeks back when we received a phone call to tell us that the housing officer had left their job suddenly for a new one (who knew there was a huge job market for sociopaths?) and that we needed to get a meeting regarding the house move as she'd not done the job handover or put anything in place. Obviously we then kinda assumed that we wouldn't be getting the keys on 1st April as promised and wouldn't be able to start moving stuff. But as a plus point we now don't have to deal with what was probably the most vindictive, manipulative and downright rude person I have ever encountered ...

 Happy 75th birthday to  the Pleasant, Open Faced 5th Doctor himself, Peter Davison.  His era of the show was when I transformed from being a wee boy who was a fan of the show to a fully paid up 'enthusiast'.   Oh yes and attending Longleat!     Even Embeth's a fan which shows remarkably good Doctor Who taste!    

  You never listened to a word that I said You only seen me from the clothes that I wear Or did the interest go so much deeper? It must have been to the color of my hair   So it's the final day of Autism Acceptance Week 2026, possibly I mean to be honest with all the moving stress and the like I've kinda lost track, it allegedly continues for the whole month but most folk get bored by the end of the first day, so I reckoned it was  time to give a round-up of the highs and lows of this years celebration of all things Autistic. As usual none of the major political parties posted a fucking thing about it, neither did the Prime Minister or the First Minister up here or any MPs/MSPs, none of the schools or colleges mentioned it and my local hospital had no idea about it when I turned up last Thursday dressed as Rainman and sporting my lanyard. So yes, it seemed to be even more ignored than as usual. As a bizarre aside I did an X (formally Twitter) search to see if Glasg...

So we're getting to the climax of Autism Acceptance Week 2026 and as per usual there's been very little - if any - mention of it from local authorities, government bodies and the like, almost as if they really don't care. But let's be honest we're kinda used to it by now. As a plus point I've been hemorrhaging X (formerly Twitter) followers this week since concentrating on 'Tism Tweets  but that might just be because everyone hates me or they're just bored with my spectrum shenanigans. Either way I'm doing a serious post today because, frankly, I can.    So pull up a chair and grab a drink as we talk about the differences you see (online and in the 'real-life') 'tween Autistic parents and 'Autism parents'. And before anyone jumps in and starts shouting at me (surprisingly this happens a fair bit, almost like folk think they're chastising a child and not talking to a 56 year old man) I'd like to point out that this isn...

 First broadcast OTD 2013 - THE most stylish - and Autastic -  teevee show ever,  Hannibal. Will Graham is (still) my Autistic spirit animal.   And yes, you could say I'm a fan.
