Ahh that is lovely to see! It seems like BSL is (finally) starting to be more visible.

Aw I love that. It’s slightly unnecessary since you know deaf people generally read but it’s still a sweet gesture.

I would have thought braille ones would be a better alternative

Excellent

I would love to see BSL being widely taught in schools.
Many of us will suffer hearing loss in later years and this would make such a difference, as well as diminishing the disability that accompanies being Deaf.

I was out with ds2 and a group of deaf people last weekend. My sign language is passable but watching them all signing was fascinating. The waitress coped admirably with all the orders!

That’s clever. Although it’s a minority, I do think things like this need to be more common

To me anything that promotes BSL in a positive way and in a mainstream setting is never unnecessary!

Fair point I suppose. It’s just I’m deaf, so to me it’s normal. I don’t think outside of it

My son found this yesterday so we got it for his Papa, he was very excited to see some BSL on something.

Ds2 went and found his cards this morning. He's very pleased.
