I have never thought of getting it from TNAUK and I use the email service.
I will do that right away. I think Gary O'Donahue does a brilliant job.
Very poised and in control.
Whilst talking of disability, I notice that Peter White has a radio four
programme this coming Saturday morning. The series is about inventions
which have changed the lives of people, and I believe Peter is discussing
the ability to scan and read books.
I remember the time, as will Ian, when Peter would not go near an electronic
book for love nor money. He stated on In Touch more than once that he could
never imagine enjoying reading in such a way. I believe that both myself
and Ian have been influencial in changing his mind. Peter is certainly one
of my best customers for my scans.
Anyway, the programme should be worth a listen.
David

Shell, the magazine I edit is called Disability Now. Not as depressing as
it sounds or as it has been in the past. The next issue has features on
Benjamin Cohen, Channel 4's technology correspondent and something on
whether Assistance dogs and PAs will or could be replaced by robots. Also
an interview by Lara Masters with BBC political correspondent Gary
Odonnoghue. It really is a bloody good read and for very little effort if
you're a member of TNAUK. You can ask them to send it to you every month.
Alternatively, all the content becomes available on the web at the end of
each month. Visit disabilitynow.co.uk and check it out.
