“Dining Out”

This week Lizzie and Sam look at the pitfalls; social no-nos and workarounds when it comes to eating out when you have a disability. Does mood-lighting give you a bad mood? How do the staff talk to you when they find out you have a Disability... and indeed do people with a Vision Impairment have it easy when compared to others out there?
