I had a really useful meeting with the OT, and she showed me lots of gadgets, so over the next few days I'll post some links and pics for things that she says are very helpful for those of us with limited dexterity

The first thing is a plug tug - it's so simple but makes it easier to pull plugs out of wall sockets



And it's pretty cheap too, I found them for £3.83 at Complete care shop

She gave me a catalogue for Able 2, which has masses of stuff. Normally I glaze over when I see these sorts of mags, because it's all so frightening, but tucked away are some other real gems, like grppers and tap turners and kitchen knives. I post more tomorrow, but gotta dash now

I like! :)

I have trouble using tweezers - plucking my eyebrows is getting really difficult, so I'm going to try these easi grip ones - they spring open and you press them inwards with whole hand - much better

you are a gem with your gadgets!
If anyone is after one of those knives, ikea do them. I goes in the drawer with other knives and wooden spoons ok.
I use normal knives for smaller veg/fruit, but the upside down knife works a treat!

But not everyone likes ikea or has one near them.

Just a way of saving our pennies!
