I lipread with hearing people, and I use sign (BSL) with other HOH people. I use sign at Deaf Club.
I just try to communicate by whatever means I can. Sometimes people have to write things down for me, but I don't care how the message gets across, as long as it does get across.
LOL though - at deaf club, all the hearies learning sign language from the college - they come and arrange their chairs in a semicircle all around us and just watch us in awe while sipping orange juice
We're just some people sitting in a pub with our beer, and then we get these people acting like their an audience in a theatre. Hehehe. They sit there all nice - they don't talk to eachother, they don't blink... they just sit with their mouths open watching us chatting.
Still... it's nice they're learning though
