I live in the UK, I am in my fifties. I suspect I sit on the spectrum somewhere on the borders. Researching the subject over the last two years has helped me understand the blind spots and stress points I have in social stuff, and compensating traits which have kept me in employment in Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

My beloved loves us Aspies. They love the directness and that we can't be bothered with the silly mind gamed people play.

I ticked the Male box based on my body shape, though based on what lies between my ears I tend to tick the boxes which read "Gender fluid" or "Genderqueer" if they are available.

All best wishes to everyone.

Now then, where to start....
Electronics, which got me into the work I have done for the past 31 years.
TV and Radio, not the programmes so much as how the receivers and for my work, the production end works.

The railway, I could probably run a few courses on the information filed away.

I pounded the miles in on my bike in the countryside for decades, more often than not in my own company.

Latest interest is the books by Rachel Green set in the fictional English small town of Laverstone, : "An Ungodly Child", "Another Bloody Love Story", "Looking for Sally,", "Screaming Yellow".
