< rant > Excuse me?!? I’ve been analysing the keywords readers are using to find HelloLittleLady.com. I was aghast at seeing the phrase above. How disgusting, how bigoted, narrow minded can one particular searcher be?!? Not happy with the fact that this person’s son has found love, they are actively looking for ways to sabotage …

The One Thing You Learn To Do As A Person With Restricted Growth
Ask.
Katie Price and the Bully Boy Frankie Boyle
The ‘comedian’ Frankie Boyle’s been at it again, and I say comedian in the loosest sense of the term, because really, this guy seriously isn’t funny. Not content with picking on kids with Down Syndrome, he’s now picking on a specific disabled kid. Good on Katie Price for sticking up for her son Harvey and …
What A Long Way We Restricted Growth People Have To Go
< rant > Oh dear, I’ve just watched BBC Question Time and was very saddened by the panels reaction to whereby some of our most senior politicians are using dwarfism to insult each other. Not only am I alarmed at how it is brushed off by one audience member as ‘political correctness gone mad’, but …
Half-Term Shopping Hell
I made the mistake of going shopping during half-term this week, though I agree this would send the calmest of person into a rage, for me it’s a heart in the mouth moment from entering the store to leaving it. Why? The.Stares. We restricted growth people are used them yes, but when you’ve got a …
Three things you shouldn’t do to a person of restricted growth – part#2

Other restricted growth people will …
Those pesky sliding doors!
Every restricted growth person will know what I’m on about here. Today I went on a Sunday shopping trip (shudder at the mass crowds thought) to one of the local out-of-town retail parks to buy my beau their Christmas present (no I haven’t told them what it is!). My attempt at getting out first thing …
“You come with baggage”
This was comment I received this week. I don’t particularly want to explain in what situation I was in, but needless to say it made feel quite mad and it had the “Oi” effect of how can you say that? Yes, I’m a disabled person and I need to have certain needs accommodated to enable …
Yes, it’s a blue badge parking space…
…and no, I’m not waving my blue badge at you for fun. Can you see a running theme in these posts of late? Today went shopping with my beau and as ever circled like a hawk around the pre-Christmas full mall car park a few times before spotting a gentleman in wheelchair heading back to …
The inconvenient blue badge…
Here’s the deal. I have a blue badge – I love it, it’s one of my favourite possessions. Not because of the feel of the cool blue plastic on my hands, but because it helps get me nearer to destinations I would think twice of visiting because of the distance I would have to walk …
