im driving the A66 today ....could all you gypsies please get out of my bloody way with your baked bean tins on wheels.

 

[rich p]

Joni, you're a one-off!

 

[Mr Pig]

Does anyone else think that gypsies are fundamentally dishonest and look forward to them moving away?

A crass generalisation I know but...

Away where ?

 

[Mr Pig]

Away where ?

I think the standard answer to that is 'anywhere else'.

My Mrs teaches Traveller kids.
They are not all thieving, off the wall bastards.

No, I'm sure they are not. I'm sure many of them are fine and decent people. However I'm also sure that many of them would happily turn you over.

Mr Pig's views could be considered discriminatory...

and inappropriate on a public forum.

Not all posters called Mr Pig are boarish*, bigotted, tedious tossrags. Shame about the few that are...

You made yourself look like more of a grievous spog than you already were - if that was what you intended then I hope you are happy now.

Joni, happy horse fair to you.

A cheery horse noise to one and all.

I can't help imaging that 'joni' has the voice of joni mitchell with the body of barbara windsor

Rats, do you know how hard mental images are to shift? ;0)

I've been to one horse fair, it was a shire horse fair, and it was brilliant.

Mr Pig's views could be considered discriminatory...

Yes, I'm sure they could. I feel sorry for the honest traveling people who have to suffer being labeled along side their less virtuous kin. I think the attitude towards travelers has changed over the years for the better, perhaps as the travelers have changed, I don't know, but the fact remains that I would not welcome a large group of travelers next door to me. I'd like to ask my accusers if they would but I doubt I'd get an honest answer. The real world is but a blur from the top of a high horse... no pun intended ;0)

Joni, I do apologise for making a mess of your nice happy thread, I should've kept my mouth shut. But as I'm an idiot and not know for tact...

I hope you have a good fair, I'm sure it will be great :0)
