It makes a huge difference to families like mine to be able to get out.” \nOur boys both loved it… Ordinarily\, after a few hours one son is on edge\, on the verge of overload. They say living with autism is like living life in a disco … I want to comment about your staff\, … They were utterly brilliant.

Decode our computer-related ding-bats to find the missing letters that form an anagram and win a small prize in our shop.\nCodename: Cipher [Enigma & The Bombe] – The year is 1940 and you have been invited to Bletchley Park to assist in the war effort.
