Any performance that kicks off by quizzing unsuspecting audience members on what their favourite disability is, is one that I can 100% get on board with. Within the opening minutes of the set, having already pitted Cerebral Palsy and Muscular Dystrophy against each other and thrown in a disability-oriented Harry Potter reference, I knew I could relax and enjoy Aaron Simmonds’ preview of his upcoming Edinburgh Fringe performances.

![DAIRY AND NUT FREE SNACKS FOR ON-THE-GO!
Oh guys, this post has been a long time coming! You may know that I’m blessed with the joys of multiple allergies, and the two that (in my experience) seem most difficult to co-exist alongside each other are dairy and nut allergies.

It’s no secret that most snack bars for this purpose are full to the brim with pesky nuts and peanuts, or feature the classic ‘may contain nuts’ statement that so many of us have come to dread, so I’m chuffed to bits to share my latest blog post: my tried and tested recommendations for dairy and nut free snacks for on-the-go….
