Confused of Anglesey

So is being confused and autistic thing? It seems often I don't understand things that others find obvious. I do tend to say I don't understand. If there are other people there, hopefully it helps someone else if they didn't like to say so.

Nah, try explaining your special interest to an NT and see how fast they get confused.

We are just also confused about a lot of stuff they paid attention to when growing up that we missed or didn't understand.

Can you explain what your special interest is? I can't. Yes, I have a day job in IT, I have an orchard and pick pears, peaches, plums and apples. I have a woodshop and I make furniture on occasion.  There's not a plumbing or electrical problem in my house that I cant fix (or those of my neighbors who know me as mr.fixit).  I spent over a decade as a broadcast engineer and can build and/or rebuild most radio equipment (although I have let my ham radio license expire).  For the life of me if I had to name my special interest, its finding joy in doing anything I can with my mind and my hands at my own pace, in my own time.

Thanks

not the philosophy that put me off.

it was the descent into madness bit I think!

hehe should have stayed with it for the happy ending 

I do recall the beer can aluminium for shims principle tho' and still sometimes apply it to this day.

never got thro' it

That is because it is a phillosopy book more than a motorbike book - it charts the main characters descent into madness and how his son saved him.

The narrative intertwines their travel experiences with deep philosophical discussions about the concept of Quality, exploring themes of technology, values, and the nature of existence.

It isn't easy reading as it challenges you but if you can keep an open mind it does encourage reflection on these values from your own perspective.

It was an important book for me at a pivotal time in my life, but they never had to deal with a worn cam shaft even once - just bad writing 

Please excuse my "overhearing" and joining in with something suitably autistic I think.
