Hi Everyone!

I'm British, but moved to America when I was a child. (Yes, an American
Citizen)
I learned a little BSL when I visited my relatives in England around 1983, and
had our four way conversation at a deaf club! I'll voice and signed ASL,
while the interpreter voiced and signed BSL, lots of fun! A lot of deaf
teenagers were great! They are so interested in ASL or never seen ASL before,
and keep asking Signs for this and that. Sign Equiette & Manners, Deaf
Culture differences, etc. What a night! =)

By the way, the BSL Fingerspelling is two handed. =)

Caroline
