    Alex,
    Thanks for sharing that with us - as you say amazing.
    To think that I sometimes have trouble remembering my own age!

    I saw programs about him as a boy, absolutely fascinating. He certainly has progressed his talent. I cannot even conceive of how he does that.

    I love the way that every time you see something about him they do some sort of test ... He doesnt need to be tested, he's been doing it since he was a kid!... Bizarre ...
    Anyway, yeah, love it! Me and Hannah have promised our selves a print ... Or even an original, should we come in to a large sum of money! I think it's the photographer in both of us that likes what he does ...
    I often find it frustrating that I can't, however quick I am with a camera, capture any single moment I like ... Bar that "eyeborg" bloke (which is very odd be comparison)... Stephen Wiltshire is the only chap on the planet who can

    Yay - like Martin last week, this is my first "From the Grave" appearance! (I think.)

    The point about Stephen Wiltshire is that he is "autistic" - though I hate that sort of label, personally. Let's just say he is different - he has this amazing talent in one area, and it just goes to highlight how different we all are, especially our brains! Maybe not to the same degree, but it does make you think. I suspect everyone has a talent for something - the trick is finding out what your talent is - I always say that you shouldn't judge yourself (or anyone else) against other people - you can only measure success (however you may define success) against your own potential, and your journey in fulfilling that potential.

    My 'Grave' did quite well on a re-run
