well personally I do not think you should be telling them in accurate
information I am of the opinion if you are going to have conversation about
your dog with the public you should be educating them.

hi janet strangely when i got in to the leeds station today a dog tried to
get to zarah and it was someone with a training dog maybe aben drury but of
course they never speak to us or anything but, like ian says all this from a
charity that years ago fought of us like hell campained for things to be
bejter for us people have been on committees spending hours fighting for our
rights and now they come out with something like this. the public are very
gullable and believe all this rubbish.
in sheffield people used to ask me how i got on the right bus and i told them
the dog could read the numbers and you know they believed it.

Hi John
I just despair of these people and you are right you tell guide dogs things
and no notice is taken whatsoever because totally blind people are in a
minority they are just left on the shelf to disappear.

hi janet well i am certainly not going to pay for the rubbish over drive set
up sad really but to me like the guide dogs the people at the top never
discuss anything with us at the bottom so to speak. also on the train today
someone was adamant i could see are you parttly sighted she kept asking it
just felt as though i had landed from outer space.

Hi Ian
I don't know if you read this newspaper but last week in the daily mirror
there was an article about an American woman who wanted to go blind which
infuriated me about as much as what you have written has. There was also
an
advert about fifteen years ago done by action for blind people that made
us
look totally helpless which annoyed me as well. I don't buy the rnib's
products as I think they are poor quality most of the time. and when my
year's subscription is up I don't think I will renew it either.
Janet ps there are still letters at the bottom of your messages.

I am seriously considering boycotting what few RNIB products and services
I
use — chiefly the electronic newspaper service — in response to their
latest
ad campaign. There has been an item on this at the end of today's edition
of WATO. Celebs including Barbara Windsor and Shirley Bassey are
presented
talking about the idea of being told they're going blind. Bassey
describes
that possibility as being "Devastating" and says she might as well be told
that she's going to die. Once again they have turned my impairment into
a
thing of terror and me into an object of pity and I've had enough of
