Gypsy Travellers: A Life On The Run

[@takerhapsody]

I rented a house with a field and it was high up on a hill. I. The winter I would let them camp on my field and once a week the kids would come and have a hot bath and I would chat with the mums. In return I asked that they kept the field clean and caused no problems and lived quietly. Worked really well. One day one of the kids broke the fence so I went and had a word with their parents and it was fixed the next day and the child came and apologised . Treat people decently and they will return the favour.

There was a recent incident at local takeaway owned by a British Indian. Some 4-5 teen boys of travelling community entered the shop and ordered too many things in the menu. The owner sensed they were in no way capable or willing to pay for any of the stuff. He still fulfilled their order, packed in carry bags and slapped the bill of about £200. They laughed, passed mean comments, threw the bill in bin, snatched the carry bags and ran from shop. Next they were chased by the owner and his men with cricket bats. Within 200 mtr of running all captured, battered brutally with crickets bats, locked in the parking garage until next morning with no access to food or water. While releasing, owner literally asked them to come up in their vans to get vandalized if they dare.

Every year there's a traveller pilgrimage to a holy site near where I live. It's intimidating sometimes because they really just descend on the place, but things rarely go wrong. Then travellers came to another town one year and every independent business locked down and refused to open. A 14 year old girl got raped and they refused to pay for parking or petrol and they left loads of trash behind. It depends on the group you get I think. They can be interesting and nice, or the worst thing to ever happen to your town.

I used to work in a psychiatric hospital, and one night the gypsys had moved into the large carpark for the day center. We had seriously needy and vulnerable people that were too scared to come onto the property. In fairness they didn't know what the place was before they moved there. One of my managers had links to the traveller community and she went and spoke with the head of the families and explained what this place was and they moved the next day. However, for the 24 hours they were there, they caused absolute chaos. The local tesco was just full of the kids walking in, picking up anything they wanted from the shelf and walking out without paying. Not even trying to be conspicuous or subtle and then giving abuse to the shop workers if they confronted them. Awful people in my experience and they bring that reputation on themselves.

Another dog was retrieved from the caravans which were just standing in the middle of a field, for ages and I chatted to 2 guys while walking who did not even bring a collar ot lead and they had a dog that would have cost a nice few quid.THey are certainly different.

I've been in contact with travellers a few times and learnt a bit about how they work. The men act aggressive and confrontational and will try to scare you. However, sometimes they are just trying to intimidate you to test if you are weak. They are people at the end of the day and nobody really wants to get into fights, they just do it because they have to. I had a traveller try and threaten me in a pub for no reason once, i stood up to him and there was no fight, instead he shook my hand and brought me a pint. He had his mate with him so it was obvious he was only doing it to show off. If you show fear, the travellers will definitely walk all over you. Understanding how different cultures work will get you a lot further in life. The travellers will say they enjoy the life but deep down it must be hell, constantly having to be on guard, participating in feuds, too much drama for me.

If you went into a bank with £50k in cash and put it on the counter they would phone the police, HMRC and the VAT people. You would have to prove where you've got it from and that you've paid tax and VAT on it if required. Drive round in a Range Rover towing a top of the range caravan and nobody asks where you got the money from or how you are affording to live. The cars are registered abroad so they don't pay road tax and can't be traced. The caravans should have numbers on so that they can be individually identified.

Had the joy of watching one early twenties lad drop his pants and crap right on the grass in the middle of a horse shoe throwing game. Even I was taken aback.....

These are the people bailiffs ought to be targeting....as opposed to targeting the normal Joe that hasn't paid a poxy parking ticket or tv licence bullshit which isn't even a crime

They tried to move down the end of my MIL’s back garden and broke into the shed and took everything…all the kids’ big toys that were stored inside. They are a menace. Move into a house, pay your taxes and abide by the law.

They like to travel but only go a few miles? Most uni students have seen more of the UK than they have by just going on the train home for Christmas.

Must be a difficult family should you opt to pursue the arts rather than kick people in the bollocks in a car park

I used to work in a fast food shop and there were a lot of Irish travellers used to come and one of them was this guy who settled down and was working as a builder and also other Irish travellers and overall I would say that they were majority very nice people and polite even when they were drunk

One of my best friends at school was a gypsy, (kinda). Her mother fled her abusive husband and got fully kicked out of the whole thing. She took her 2 year old and just bolted.She ended up working as a waiter in London in the 1990's, where she meet her second husband. He's Australian and he made an absolute fuckton in the early 2000's tech boom. This was after my friends mum had married him and moved with her daughter to Australia. So anyway my friend grew up here and never knew her mums family or anything, but eventually her family found out about them. And let me tell you, travellers might talk a big game kicking people out and only marrying within their group, but the minute they found out what my friends step-father was worth (like I dunno defiantly tens of millions) they disregarded the whole thing. They where obsessed with moving here and becoming "Part of the family".

*if they didn't leave rubbish everywhere and want to fight everyone people would be more sympathetic*

[@drake1896]

This group seems alright

[@matthewdavis7356]

Summed it up well Graham. Unfortunately they’re a law unto themselves and that’s what makes them dangerous to the public. We’ve all met a few; some are all right, some not so much but even with the good ones you have to keep your wits about yourself.

[@fantasypgatour]

@@matthewdavis7356 Still yet to meet a "good" one here

I never used to mind em....till some of their kids made their way into our back garden and decided to 'relieve' themselves there...just great....

What you moaning at urine is good for the plants

Lol. Hearing that makes me appreciate living in the states a little more. I think you know what would happen if someone tried that here!
