Re: Gypsies

When i lived in Ossy, Romany Gypsies would be camped down Foxhill bank in horse drawn carriages, the word locally was dont go nr them they steal children, ( they still get accused today) i often played skimmers with the young lads in the lake. These as metioned above where Romanys from Europe and not the economic migrants we sometimes see taking the pish from one end of the country to the other. He explains it all on the first line, "i am an Irish Traveller" its just a shame the joining of Europe is not going to affect everyones income in Ireland so it would be worth staying. As for English soldiers under orders, what a load of, Irish travellers have been coming here for years and still do, good luck to them all, providing they dont steal my children, rob me or generally take the pish i let them be. The first Tarmac gang has already arrived in Lisbon much to the Mayors delight, not.

Re: Gypsies

The response to this posting, unlike the original post, restores my faith in humanity and reminds me why I love Accrington and its people so much. I regret the fact that I strayed, you could say travelled, to the deep south. And yes, I regret my disloyalty when I went to Edgely and supported County. If he removes the chip from his shoulders I'm sure he could find some valuable friends here.

I hope the lad learnt to spell from his Father, I know for a fact that,

hacney (thats in london)

does not exist, so to use a Hackneyed Expression, you should have spent more time on your Geography home-work, than your Biology field-work!


Bloody suvveners treating us and our whippets as ill-educated!

Re: Gypsies

Excuse me Less, i was born in Hackney. So i am a "suvvener". I do not think of you all and your whippets as being ill-educated. Just find "norveners" very difficult to comprehend, in dialect and customs.

Excuse me, Vera, but if you look at her Avator you will notice she can't even spell where she comes from, but does think those of us north of the Watford Gap wouldn't know where it is and need to have it explained, I have no problem with most from the south of that area, just the ones that have to mis-spell it out to us because they think we wouldn't know.
