@cohanf @dillyd Very wise! The next time I see one of these lost but perched items I am going to be so ridiculously giddy with excitement to photograph and toot about it.

@dillyd @cohanf Good luck seeing that one again.

Largely for this reason I have garish pink glass cases so I can more easily see where I left them. (Few places I go are likely to have a decor of garish pink).

@cohanf @dillyd Yes, the former. Here a pushchair, stroller, pram or buggy are all interchangeable terms for equipment to move small children about in.

A wheelchair is for use by anyone with mobility issues.

Here in the UK toys are mostly chucked out of prams by children.

In America it seems it’s mostly done by their richest adults.

@dillyd We do this here too, usually it’s something that’s been dropped from a push chair.

I am very good at losing one glove. I don’t think I have ever found any of them again.

@APBBlue Damn those Kings of Gondor. 20/24 but with a few lucky guesses.

@kellyromanych That’s so good. Curbing our natural hand gestures is tricky. Does Geo have a deaf alternative to a head tilt when he’s trying to understand something?

Ernie was wary but very intrigued by the umbrella slung over the lady’s shoulder when she walked ahead of us.

It made me realise we don’t use umbrellas as much as we used to even though it rains just as much.

@kellyromanych Geo’s enjoying that sun. Coming along in leaps and bounds 💚 joyful indeed.

Being deaf has its pluses too. A lady opened up the world’s noisiest umbrella as we walked past her yesterday. Even made me jump and spooked Ernie briefly.

How many signs are you and Geo up to now? He’s a clever boy.

@sarahtaber Despite the unemployment and poverty caused by the Lancashire cotton famine, caused by the collapse of the cotton trade from the American Civil War, the UK cotton mill workers voted in 1862 to side with the Union and Lincoln in the continued fight against slavery.

The UK government and the mill owners sided with the Confederacy. History teaches us important lessons that are as relevant today.
