I have a real sense of humour about my autism and enjoy laughing at myself. When others express friendly humour over my traits, I laugh along with them. I know that not everyone can giggle at their challenges, but I find it cheers me up immensely.

I paint abstract portraits in my spare time (I like the style of Tamara de Lempicka and also Klimt)

I watch Doctor Who (both new and classic series) and enjoy most non-violent science-fiction and fantasy, especially that of the 70s and 80s like Sapphire and Steel

I'm a big fan of Once Upon a Time

I'm regularly doubled-up with laughter watching Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory and seeing some of my behaviour.

My taste in music is appalling, so I'll just mention 70s music and most novelty records!

I have a somewhat consuming interest in my health, fitness and hormone levels. I love research in these areas and work out. I also eat a dairy free diet because of allergies.
