Well I'm not too sure. But Is there anything you can do to get out away from them? even if it's just for a couple of hours regularly on a saturday night? You could arrange to taxi down to a cinema, catch a flick or two. :question: I'm sure you'd appreciate the down time/breathing space and maybe even look forward to it.
I get what yer sayin', but it's increasingly rare that they'll let me outta the house unaccompanied. Yep, they're that overly protective o' me. My oldest sister normally tags along to the cinema with me if they're summit on that we'd both like to see. I mean, she awrite when she not being obnoxious or seeking validation from me. Apparently I'm the
"cool" wee brother...
Anyway, I did have a disabled bus/train pass once a beyond a time, which allow me to pay a half fare. Haven't renewed it since oh the early 2000s when one of my cousin would take me shopping in her local town. Also, don't know if I'll have to go through the usual bureaucratic BS to get it renewed? :question: Got photos for it, certainly. It's just, with some lazy c*nts taking advantage o' the system, I have to give proof that I'm disabled afore being eligible for stuff that I'm technically entitled to. :veryangry:
Plus the nearest local cinema which caters for disabled folk is like an hour and a half from where I live. Don't get me wrong, in recent years they've been fairly quick at getting the latest films from yer well-known Hollywood movie studios.
The only downside is - given that it's just a wee, rural, local-run cinema with 2 seperate screening rooms. And, depending on the film, the bit can be packed to capacity, even if you reserve a seat. So, it's best to get there early to be a sure a decent seat. Otherwise, it's the front-row. And in my case, being a fairly tall lad, yer slouched, arse dangling off the chair; neck craned upwards at the screen for 2 hours straight. :thumbdown:
Not that I'd be against getting a taxi there, it'd just be getting me there on time. And having enough money to pay the fair, there and back.Since the movie screenings at my local cinema vary from week to week. On top of that, you've got drinks, popcorn, ice-cream, etc.
