Hi, long time no see to everyone, thanks for the Vic. spot I did not know it existed (to whoever sent that, thanks).

I've just started reading a book called "Living with Max" a UK story by Max's mum Sandy Lewis. It's been really good so far, quite frank and emotive and sensitive also. Her son Max has DS and was born in around 1993 when she was 29.
Anyway what i wanted to mention was that Max has acted in the movie "Notes on a Scandal" made in 2008 (I think) with Cate Blanchet in it. Has anyone seen it and what did you think. I'm going to catch it at some stage.

I hope everyone is doing well, catch you again

Hi Jay, I borrowed it from the library but you might like to try an online search on amazon or at one of the local bookshops to see how much it is, I've also ordered the DVD to watch the movie that the boy acted in, still waiting for it to come in, Coral

I'll be in UK in just over a week if you want me to bring it home for you Jay. Otherwise, your local library will be able to get it in for you Smile
