Hello Alan. I enjoy a good read. Your paper is a good read. You know I have worked in IT since 1958, yes 1958, so it could be said I am OK with technology. But I do not have a mobile phone. Two possible reasons. My dislike of how a phone interrupts your life and can take priority over what you were doing. Alternatively a PWS's fear of phones. I am not sure. But I have started to do some texting on another's mobile phone, and stopped avoiding speaking situations. Anyway, I would also be interested to hear what made you change your life and to begin speaking and enjoy yourself whilst speaking. (Does your wife have to tell you to pipe down so she can get a word in once in a while? (smile)) Does your international support group network need more helpers? If so will you send me details please? Did Mr. Blair agree to apply to the EEC for a longer working day for those of us who run out of time? Keep up the positive messages to PWS everywhere. Keith
