  1. Have you ever tried to follow the subtitles? They are a waste of time. I also had many scraps with people taking the micky out of deaf people.
  2. Both my parents were deaf so learned to sign at a early age. I also taught a mate back in the 60's the basic sign alphabet he picked it up in less than 2hrs. I have always said it should have been taught to kids when they first started school. Sadly both my parents are long gone and I haven't used sign language for a long time.
  3. I think its a brilliant it should have been done years ago.
  4. I had a friend who lived on Randall Street back in the 60s, Name of Walker (Billy). Lost touch early 70s.
