I wondered.
    ahhhh scammed, when she said she had no pots you should of walked away!! At that stage sure they had their pockets lined, what you were buying them was just the tip of the iceberg

    when i was 7, a few of them robbed my ice cream.
    most of my dealings with them have been disasterous
    (trying to fuck me over in various ways). some think they are above the law,
    so i choose to have no dealings with them.

    No, you can tell by the food she picked out she was serious-why would you fool someone into buying milk, cereal, frui,r bread, and the like? I tried to get her to buy some Coco Pops cereal. she went for the non-sugary Kelloggs brand.

    they are not known for choosing good diets.
    obesity is evidently an issue for them, an earlier
    poster mentioned 39 as the average expected age.

    That's what I'm saying-she was for real; she didn't ask for money, nor did she want the most expensive things in the shop. and if you k-now about women with kids, if the money is tight, they usually buy nutritous, go the distant foodstuff, but even if she was lying, I'm not not going to help a woman feed her kids-FULL STOP! My Grandmothe would often tell me how her and the neighbors in the housing estate where she raised my mother would take turns feeding the kids when money was low.

    i wouldn't like to live in a caravan, no way!

    as for the money side of it, i'd love to have the money they do, always new cars, jeeps, vans and always high spec. i know one traveller family fairly well, they're settled travelers for the past 18 years, lovely people and very very wealthy!
    yes a lot of young travelers are gorgeous, but look at what they turn into, could you listen to one of they talk?? i couldn't!



    and this is when they are in their 30s

    As a friend of mine says, they look well until they open their mouths.
    Personally don't mind their accent, there are worse (Limerick for instance, ffs)
