ok i wrote quite a long post but I keep getting signed out and have to sign back in.

Jist of it was this

RELAX

Blind people appreciate a quip which is what that was.
I have blind friends (Jimmy total and Jimmy partial) Jimmy total (has a dog) often bumps in to people and says sorry I am deaf or something similar! Didnt hear you.

I did a 100 mile tandem bike ride with Jimmy Parial (I steered) for no reason other than we are mates and I like to ride bikes - it may be percieved as charity but it was not.

I raise money for a blind charity and would estimate that in the next 12 months I will raise approx $15,000

I organise football matches and a guy plays aged 37 with CP - his family were so overprotective of him that they called after each match to discuss how it went!

A single disability does not stop you being a human, nor does it require other people to do all your talking for you -

I know a guy who works for the BRAILLE press in Edinburgh and mentioned this and It might now even be in print!

RELAX

OR

Buy a high horse at the high horse emporium

No one is ignorant here.

Not like they are deaf!
