Hi all

I have been a lurker for a while, and now taken the plunge and joined up. I am a 50 year old female and am autistic with Asperger Syndrome, although I am very high functioning. I do not work as although high functioning, the AS causes a few difficulties.

Many interests, got a good sense of humour. Hopefully will fit in!!

Cheers.

I am sure that your disability (if such you consider it) can only add to our positive experience.

Thank you folks. My main area of activity will be centred around my three favourite 'girls' Caedmon, Waverley and Brittany Ferries Barfleur, although I like to cast my net wide!!
