can't remember now!

think it was Yahoo I was using at the time, but might have been google as well, as I was looking up for chat pages, instead of looking for information about being Dyspraxic.

'bout sums me up too Shadwell.'

The Googling combination I think was "dyspraxia in adults" because I kept on getting pages for children and was looking for info since I was (about) to be re-diagnosed for university.

Now if I don't have a bookmark I just google dyspraxia adults - and it's usually the 2nd link. \:D/

I found it through google. I was searching for information on dyslexia and dyspraxia, and this was one of the search results. I'm glad I found this place though!

Mrs Fluff told me, though she never registered, only saw the two forums and told me it was "a bit crap". But yesterday, I registered and a whole new set of forums emerged, and we spent last evening perusing them together!

Thats recent unfortunately. I had to do it to keep the running costs of the site down :(

I've seen other places do that too, though I didn't know it was cost related. Ah well, better late than never! :)

IIRC that's pretty much how I stumbled upon this place too. I was looking for forums or suchlike regarding dyspraxia but, like you said, all the search results seemed to be relating to kids, so I Googled "dyspraxic adults" and alas I found out about the Dyspraxic Adults forum. :)

I posted on Dyspraxic Teens website and a poster over there mentioned it, so I thought I'd take a look.
