Signs

Two signs encountered by Sir Terence Clark in his travels. The first, which he is pointing to, means “female saluki” (I know Terence through the dogs– he is another scholarly dog traveller). It is in Tunisia.

The second is in Kashgar–the Chinese consider our noses huge. (The Han at least– I rather doubt the often hawk- nosed local Uighurs do). Betsy Huntington was born in China (as was Libby’s mother– actually connections!) She often said that the first thing she learned from playmates was that her nose was too big.
