We just don't seem to be able to catch a break at the moment, and if it's not one thing going wrong and upsetting Andy, it's another. We try and put on a brave face and just get on with it, but right now we're pretty close to breaking point...

ABOUT KEVIN CHAPMAN
I'm a 38 year old KZbinr from the UK. I've got a cracking beard and I'm currently going through the autism diagnosis process. I started this channel back in 2017 and by the time I left my full-time job as a Computer Science teacher in July of that year, my partner Anna was trapped in our house by our son Andy, who is autistic and had refused to go to school for 18 months. Our daughters Lucy and Amy and our dog Dave hardly saw me because I was always working to try and solve all our problems! Today I'm a full-time content creator and always at home when the kids get home from school (all our kids!) and Anna has been able to return to university. This channel is the story of my ongoing journey! Previously known as lollujo Vlogs and The Chapman Family.

I was just about to suggest something similar. A countryside/seaside break rather than theme parks and great big attractions, which are crazy busy.

Ahhh, the rigidity of autism always seems to prevail in times like this. Hope the summer goes well and the remainder of the school year is without incident. Our last day of school is this Thursday, and then his summer term starts the end of June and goes for 4 weeks. I am crossing my fingers/toes that all goes well.

Sounds like a challenging time with recent changes whether planned or otherwise seemingly unsettling Andy. Maybe ask the local authority, school or CAMHS if they can recommend an activity centre or new care agency in your area offering either a day's respite (e.g. 9am-5pm) or more consistency. There's a man-made beach called Bosworth in Nuneaton which is near to Leicester. Ideal for a weekend trip perhaps? Good at cooling people down if the weather stays warm too.

I went to Alton Towers with my autistic daughter during half term. CBeebies land is open to come and go as you please, but the live shows are restricted from what I could see, so that might be something to look at before you go if Andy likes that kind of thing. For the rides, you can apply for a ride access pass before you go, then pick it up on arrival, which is then valid for 2 years! This allows people with disabilities to go on the rides with minimal queuing. They do write times on a card when you can go back to the ride, but they were quite slack with it to be honest. We had a really good day there! 😊

Hi Kev, mentioned it on a previous video but my home town of Bury, Not a typical holiday resort but I'm sure you'd have fun. Slightly cheaper than stopping in central Manchester and I'm sure Andy would enjoy the commute using the tram. Theres Europe's biggest free to play arcade here (Look on here for Arcade Club Bury) for a post Covid tour. Theres the East Lancs Railway steam trains (which includes entry to the transport museum opposite), the Heaton Park Tramway (similar to Blackpool trams, but set within a park - theres boats to hire, playgrounds to play in and a little farm to visit here too) and loads of churches. Obviously central Manchester is on the door step which can be reached via a Tram, get off at Victoria and you'd be walking straight out to the Cathedral & Printworks where the Rooftop golf you've previously visited. Plus if Amy were to come she could experience the Friends cafe in Primark. You could also look into the CBBC Tour at Mediacity? Finally on the outskirts of Manchester theres the Chill Factore, alongside the main ski ramp they offer something called a "Snowpark" Heres a quick description I've lifted off the website; "Our Snow Park offers the ultimate real snow adventure in Manchester. From thrill filled sledging to the delights of the Downhill Donuts. Our Snow Park is perfect for kids and adults alike! So, take your marks and zip down our real snow slope! Ice Slide: Release your inner ‘big kid’ as you tackle the twists and turns of our ice slide. Downhill Donuts: Ride the slope in our large single or double inflatable rubber ring and speed down the Snow Park lanes and race for first place! Sledge 'n’ Slide: Race your pals to the bottom of our real snow slope."

Hey kev, I heard you were looking at getting another gaming pc or upgrading one and I am looking at getting one myself and was wondering if you had any recommendations? I know a bit about GPU's and CPU'S but I'm not sure if Intel which is what I'm running now is better than AMD? I'm currently looking at the Crystal Elite gaming pc from chillblast which has Intel i9 10900k, GeForce RTX 3090 10GB and 32GB DDR4 Ram!
@simeonyves5940
@simeonyves5940 3 жыл бұрын
This is not Kevin, but, I think I can Help You The 3090 is 24GB, its the 3080 which is 10GB, the 3080 a Very Good 1440P Card (the 3090 is not really worth its Money unless You Really want to go 4K...but, even the 90 is going to Struggle Hitting 60FPS at 4K with RT Turned on as RT is an absolute Hammer blow to the Performance no matter what Card is in use!) , Lots of Bang for Buck, but they are Difficult to Find at the Moment with the current Situation. Gigabyte Aorus is the Best Brand IMO with the Triple Windforce Air-Cooler and RGB, however, as they are using the Same Fan Shroud as the RTX 3090 on their 3080 and 3080Ti Units, the Card is a *Monster* at 300MM and needs a very Big Case! I recommend going Gigabyte Aorus on the Motherboard as well, However, as they have to come in from Taiwan, there is a Shortage so You may have to Wait. However, the AMD Ryzen's absolutely Mop the Floor with the 10th and 11th Gen Intel's, its like the Old K6 Days (when they absolutely Dominated against the Pentium 2) as they have 20% more Cores, more Hyperthreads, are Faster with Higher Stock Clocks (AMD do not overclock as well as Intel, but are Faster in Per Core Performance when Factory Stock), and its *Cheaper* They do Need a Liquid Cooler however as AMD CPU's like to Run Hot! The Big Case needed for the 3080 with Triple Windforce should make it easy to Install a Custom Built Liquid Cooling system, which tend to be Safer than All in One Systems. Ensure You Max out the Cooling Fans, You need Fans in every Slot to keep a PC with that Level of Thunder under the Bonnet Nice and Cool! 32GB of DDR4 (The Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB is a good Pack IMO) at around 3700 HZ would be a Good Match for a RTX 3080 (or 3080TI if You can Find one and Stretch to about £1100 as that blows the 3080 into a cocked Hat and is within 10 FPS of a 3090 at 1440P) and a 5900X. I also Recommend a 1TB PCIE NVME SSD for the OS and a 4TB (I know they are Expensive, But Games these Days are getting to be over 100GB Per Game with all the Patches and DLC Installed) SATA NVME SSD for Storage. I would not go with a Prebuilt from a major Chain Company however, as they tend to be Overpriced somewhat, I would Recommend instead going with either a Small Non Chain Company like I use. Hope that Helps :)

@@simeonyves5940 this helps a ton, thank you. I meant to put it had a 3080, I mistyped it 😂 I would not be looking to go 4k right now and not even RT on - maybe on some games but not high-end games. I also am looking for a machine to record and stream with that doesn't slow down anything or never notice a drop in frames on all types of games like Roblox (yes, you read that correct), Minecraft Java and bedrock, ETS2, Among Us and a few more games and my laptop currently can run those fine while streaming and recording but I have to tweak a few settings to get it absolutely smooth and I would like to run each game at max settings at ideally above 100fps - 60fps minimum although I am thinking of getting a 200+ refresh rate monitor as I need to get one (and keyboard). I don't know how to assemble most components of a pc however my stepdad is a beast with that sort of stuff but we both worry that something might go wrong to build the pcs ourselves. I see how you said about a big pc case too but I would like to have a case that's as small as possible as I don't have a lot of space in my room. Appriciate all of your suggestions massively and I will take them into consideration when deciding what pc to get! 🙂

Hi Kev. In relation to possible holidays for you guys, have you considered purchasing a caravan or motorhome? It seems that you have a decent possible tow car for pulling the caravan, so pulling the caravan shouldn't be an issue. Caravanning generally is flexible, and there are numerous caravan sites to visit all over England and France etc. Further benefits that would aid caravaning is joining motorhome and caravan clubs, which further allow for discounts on caravan sites. You guys could effectively set off for a caravanning holiday for 10 days or just for the weekend. Caravanning is relatively cheap aswell, relative to abroad holidays and ultimately if you find that caravanning is not for you guys, you could always resell your caravan and they generally tend not to depreciate that much. Let us know if you need any further guidance? 👍

It’s watching Vlogs like this when I just want to be able to give you a hug and tell you both everything is going to be ok. Hopefully by the summer holidays the remaining restrictions will have been lifted. If not completely lifted then mostly. It all depends on if this new Delta causes a 3rd wave. But Doris is meant to be making a decision on the 14th June about The final stage of lifting lockdown and all restrictions in England which is due to take place no earlier than 21 June. Where the government hopes to remove a legal limits on social contact. Which means place could run at full capacity, but Even if these are lifted, rules on facemasks and social distancing could remain in place. I have everything crossed that you have a good summer. I know how you feel about needing to just get out of the same 4 walls. As someone who is extremely clinically vulnerable I’ve been shielding and only left the house a handful of times since just before the 1st lockdown in England March 2020, And I’m definitely battling with a serious case of cabin fever. I’m looking forward to going and spending the day at my dads. He lives 20miles away from me. But on a farm in the middle of the Lincolnshire countryside. Stay strong everyone. 💜💪🏻🧩💙

Merlin parks aren't great at the moment when you go on busy weekends. We have been going less with our autistic child and we use the Ride Access Pass, because even if you can jump the queues there's still a 'queue jump queue' which has been on average 30 minutes which isn't ideal. That said, if you're looking for somewhere to go, my son adores going to Butlins and it's all he talks about.

Try Salcey forest in Northampton. It's a forest walk and if the weather is nice can be quite good. We have taken our autistic son Ben there. It's free you just pay for parking. Or try stanwick lakes near rush den.

There could be stuff to do around Matlock area. I know youve been to gullivers kingdom before in Matlock bath. Don’t know if that something Andy would still enjoy and I know they’ve expanded it recently. Also crich tramway village is about ten minutes from there might also be something Andy would enjoy. Matlock bath also has the heights of Abraham cable cars which I know Andy enjoyed in London however it is a bit pricey but there is lots more to do at the top of the cable car hill

This Is Quite Far But Hear Me Out. Down In The Kent / South East Area Has A Lot Of Miniature railways Their Within A Very Short Radius Of One Another. Examples Are The SKLR Or The B&WLR And Even The RH&DR. Just A Suggestion As Andy Does Like His Trains. If You Did Consider This I Would Recommend Staying At Dymchurch As There Is An Arcade Nearby And A Very Nice Beach. No Matter What Happens I Hope It All Works Out This Summer!
