Signing Off

Don't worry this isn't the end, far from it I feel. Now the obligatory pessimism is complete on with what I wanted to talk about. I have decided  its about time I expanded my knowledge and skills and have started to learn a new language, in the words of Rolf Harris....Can you guess what is is yet?

Of course its Sign language. Do I know anyone who is deaf? No. Will I ever have a conversation with anyone who is deaf? Probably not. Is it all gonna be a colossal waste of time? I hope not. Will I finally understand the person in the corner on late night TV? Damn straight I will be!

Today I took my first baby steps into the world of signing, learning the basics of language that we all learn when we're in nursery, such as the alphabet, greetings & basic words. I have to say I'm finding it surprisingly enjoyable and therapeutic for someone who likes to talk with there hands a lot. Hopefully in future I'll get around to producing a vlog in sign language, not that any of you would understand it in the slightest.

On that note I shall sign off
