Only a gypsy could be called 'John John'

Its more about her that makes the bloody dresses than gypsies !! Incidently these are indigenous irish travellers not true romanies although some will have married into roma families. Alot of nonsense if you ask me and playing to the cameras , nothing like reality so I'm told .

You got that right, let’s not forget this is an entertainment program, chewing gum for your mind.

One thing about genuine traveller horsiemen their steeds are always gleaming , that combined with a good trot .. a matter of honour.

My wife loves this... I have to admit though I'm starting to get a little cheesed off with it all now.... Seeing them swanking around in expensive cars, flouting the law and generally contributing little except mindless entertainment.... I doubt there's a lot of tax contributed to the public purse, they don't appear to have any moral urge to abide by the laws of the land and glorifying them with a TV series, while genuinely interesting for the first series as an insight into a culture I knew little about, is starting to seriously grate on me now....

 

 

Good to ogle a few hooters though....

There was a series on scottish travellers shown not that long ago the Stewarts etc and i can assure you it was a million miles from the ' big fat ' series , much more true to life . There not romanies either incidently.
