I am going away for 3 days from tomorrow. I am going to a place called Pembrokeshire in West Wales with a four other members of the Viva Project. We are members of the Young Disabled People of Wales Network.
We meet up every year to discuss problems that a disabled person might face, and attempt to find ways to improve the problems. There are also workshops to take part in. Some are fun, some are boring. But the great thing is you make new friends and meet old ones.
I only joined the Network last year, so I am fairly new to all this. But I am really looking forward to a few days away from home. One thing I shall miss though is my mobile phone. There is limited reception in Pembroke so I won’t be able to text or call as much. I will be busy, so I won’t need to anyway.
As many of you may remember, last summer I went on holiday to Lanzaroté (click, just added holiday photos from 2006). I didn’t take my phone because I was afraid it may be stolen. At the end, I had forgotten how to text. It was like I had been given a new toy to play with; I had to learn all over again, LOL!
I have noticed in the last few months, people have very suddenly gone private or have deleted their journal. I find this very strange, but people have their reasons. I hope you are all well, and you all have a wonderful week.
Thanks to my ADC Group for graphics.
