Hello there

I couldn't see anything in the message board rules requiring an
introductory post, but I thought it would be good manners to introduce
myself, so here goes.

My name's Robin. I'm 24. I live in Catford (S.E. London) with my
boyfriend, his dog, our three rats, a tank full of tropical fish, and
a terrapin (yellow bellied slider.)

I am currently unemployed as I can get very depressed, and generally
find dealing with people very hard. I do however study with the Open
University (S103, Discovering Science) and volunteer once a week at
the Natural History Museum wildlife garden. I am very much into urban
ecolgy and environmental conservation - trees and fungi don't demand
small talk!

I am not diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, I am waiting to see an
NHS psychologist to discuss it with. A number of the traits fit with
my experience of life though, so I won't be surprised if my suspicions
are correct.

I hope you all don't mind me being here.

Take care

Robin
