Quote from: Panda on 24 June 2014, 01:05:37 pmI actually know a lot of sign language as my uncle and aunty are both death (their kids are not though) ... I have seen a few death clients though and one was the nicest guy ever and very greatfull we could actually have a conversation without it being too much effort bbuuttt the other guy just reminded me of a lot of the people that go to the essex death club (my uncle used to go) ... they feel because they are death they say they want to be treated equally but also want special treatment. The 2nd guy i saw made it rather clear because he was death he wanted everything i didnt offer because i should feel sorry for him and got rather angry when i said no I hate to say this but make sure he is actually death, sometime last year i had a guy claiming to be death, he didnt understsnd any signing nor could he lip read but he could hear me talk when i wasnt facing him ... i said a random sentence of gobble de gook to see if he was lying and low and behold he was. Booking was over there and then.Panda, did you type this on a phone? I don't know if it's a case of autocorrect kicking in (death vs deaf) but this made me laugh so much!! xPS - sorry for going OT x
