 @Former-Member @maddison hi. yes people with brain intelectual disability learn big pictures visual cues and then having to relearn it all the next day again till it sticks, but thanks to you and others im slowly learning. im very slow at typing so cant reply to every one, im couldnt find the red dot but people are replying so thats very exciting for me. my problem is my doctor says i present well, so people dont relise the level of my learning dificulty, but its ok, just hope i havnt missed replying to some one, farm is a shoe string shambles, people buy eggs, piglets, plants,   but i cant talk face to face,  or make eye contact with people so it it must seem awkward to them  , im good on the phone so i used to have social contact that way, and i never know if people are giving me the right money but i always have enough to eat. and the shop lady takes the right money out of my hand so im happy, but also gets lonely here. what about you, if you are not a teacher , you should be. you have teaching skills, i got a pile of leftover stuff from the bakery so its feeding time for the animals and i dont want to loose my fingers. all the best. tonys
