My life as a dyslexic, its ups and downs it's joys, frustrations and the wins and struggles. I am a dyslexic dyslexia and inclusion specialist, musician, social entrepreneur, podcaster and broadcaster.

stuff other than dyslexia
The past couple of weeks have been very busy. On Friday 6th we moved into our new home in Caskiberran in Glenrothes. Have to say we love our new house especially nice to have gardens and be living on the ground floor lol. One thing I will say is that buying and selling your home is not easy and is sooooo stressful. But the day of the move went very well thanks to the team from Flemings in Fife who helped us move house.
My wife is a member of the Fife Hospitals Kidney Support Group. Last week end she organised a week end away to Oban for members of the group. It all 26 kidney patients and carers went on the trip. I went along to support my wife with meeting the patient needs. Just getting off the coach was a challenge for some.
Made a little stop over at the Green Welly Stop:

Anne and I had been to Oban before we both love the place. The people are friendly, the scenery is spectacular and there is plenty to see.
We stayed at the Royal Hotel, not a bad hotel friendly staff, good food comfy beds and the entertainment was great. I bunch of guys just sat and played fiddles, bagpipes and keys lots of old Scottish tunes. Everyone loved it had a good old sing song. Not bad for a three star hotel but like many old hotels not very accessible. But it was the most accessible that my wife could find in the Oban area.
It was sunny and pretty warm all day Saturday but the weather had totally changed Sunday morning. The rain was coming down horizontally and the wind was blowing a gale lol. Needless to say the planned boat trip to Lake Katrine was cancelled lol. But we stopped off on the way back in Perth for a traditional hi tea.
Anyway a good time was had by all.
