Autism

This is my sister-in-law P's (& S) washing machine. Strange you may think as we are on holiday in Bray, Ireland, but P & S's youngest son D is autistic. D loves washing machines & while we were having a late lunch here today, the machine had to be filled up then turned on. It is quite pleasing to see him when we visit them (or they visit us) as we have witnessed his progress throughout the years.
He is very lucky to have a proud mum 'n' dad, brothers & family around him.

My wife R & son P & myself meet S & M plus their kids R, S & A this morning for a late breakfast on the Bray seafront. It was lovely to have (eventually) met them - S being a cousin of R's. S is also a keen photographer & has agreed to drive me round Dublin tomorrow night to do some night shooting. Something we both have been wanting to do for a while.
