what.. you brought ‘lucky heather’?
I thought it was only tourists that fell for that these days.. :group_hug
September 13, 2010 at 7:29 pm #1228830Smoke those leaves, you’ll get proper high. Gypo leaves innit
September 13, 2010 at 8:48 pm #1228820AnonymousHi Hat ,
I think you did the right thing , no one wants a curse . I didnt buy the lucky heather got cursed and although im 38 im still waiting for my nasty end . I wouldnt mind if she was selling something i actually wanted or needed but why is it always lucky heather or clothes pegs …..which they’ve probably nicked from your back garden anyway . I mean they should widen the variety of goods and maybe they’d get more sales , still they do tarmac drives now though lol .regards

I ended up having my drive done by some local gypsies (brick paved) – not me – my dickhead ex agreed to ‘cold calling’ without me knowing and didnt realise. I did straight away as soon as I heard about it and wasnt too happy as I was conserned there may be more to the price that he’d agreed…
I must say they did a marvelous job,
but seemed like slave labour – two older chaps about 60 -70 years old and one even got a smack in the mouth from the ‘boss’ (I think on reflection for my benefit to know what he is like ) and they were provided with countless cups of tea and biscuits!! 😉however it was when it came to pay they suddenly did the whole…
you owe us more money, 3 of em turning up to the house when I was on my own demanding money etc,
I went fucking mental,
in the end I had 2 rather large lads in the front room with baseball bats – just in case –
and I just refused to give anymore then the dumb ex had agreed, they finally realised I wasn’t gonna back down despite the whole ‘threats of we’re gypsies’ etc, and they were paid only what he’d agreed, and luckily got quote / invoice on paper.I must admit I was shitting it inside but will not have the piss taken out of me by people who think they can intimidate me, they can fuck right off!
I have no problem with peoples heritage (my mum has Romany roots) but its just the intimidation that gets me :hopeless:
September 13, 2010 at 9:43 pm #1228832go on mummy!
one a gypsy offered me something to make me tipsy and i said NO NO NO
September 13, 2010 at 9:52 pm #1228821AnonymousHi Tank Girl ,
Fair play to you , your a brave woman and take no shit . However i think if i was in your shoes i’d have felt better if those two rather large lads had shotguns instead of baseball bats . Still i bet those gypsies wont mess with you again 🙂 . And no i dont disslike gypsies at all , where i used to like as a kid a gypsie family used to stay in the fields not far from my house every year . They were great , they had a proper horse drawn caravan all painted traditionally , beautiful to look at . And they used to let us stroke the horses . They were nice people but as always its the bad ones that every one talks about .regards
mungoSeptember 13, 2010 at 10:00 pm #1228822I reckon I actually know which woman it was what called at process’s door, as she usually is arounds this area.
One of my late fathers best mates was a Gypsy, she lived in a caravan but worked in this high tech scientific lab along with my dad. Gypsy culture is not unlike the upbringing strict Asian families (might be why my Dad got on well with her 😉 ) but just like many Asian cultures its patriarchal and encourages the use of physical strength and dominance behaviour and angry young men can therefore do a lot of damage if not kept in check.
September 14, 2010 at 7:03 pm #1228825i found out that they werent actually from any local site, but had just moved onto a patch of land about 10mins from my house. they were alright apparently. didnt caus eany trouble and where only there for about a week then moved on. they left loads of toilet paper scattered all over the trees though. in my exo its the romany gypsies that are usually the okay ones, but some of the others that dont really hold the same values.
