How horrible. Not letting their kids "mix" with other kids. Jeez, they're only kids, let 'em play with other kids down the park.

Amanda 18-02-10 09:24 PM

Re: Traveller Weddings
 
There are enough kids in their "Community" to mix with anyway. After all it seems thats their life ... marriage, sex, kids! Circle of life. No need for jobs, tax, etc


Oooooo Don't get me started lol

Only time I would like to see pikey scum on TV is with big cross in middle "I'm a 'traveller' please stop everyone shooting at me" or something. Be a right laugh. You could do phone in voting for what weapons to use next... "or text B to napalm campsite!... texts cost 20p plus your standard network rate".

Other than the extravagant dress sense, I didn't think they seemed that outrageous or 'wrong' so to speak.

Blokes seem to have it easy though - basically just pick a wife by the sounds of it, because all the girls are so desperate for a bit of freedom!

Comedy genius at work :-D

Watched the porgramme. Apart from the outrageous dress-sense they seemed okay to me. Just getting on with their lives. But yeah, we didn't see all that they get up to. Not that long ago that one of the local travellers threatened me with a pitchfork!

I agree, some very good-looking girls. But it takes more than that to make a girl attractive.

Very good programme i thought.
Ok, dresses were a bit on the extravagant side and a tad loud but i was very surprised at the way the young girls conducted themselves.
How many teenagers these days have the same morals as these girls?
No clubbing, drinking or frolicking with the other sex before marriage.
Our society could actually learn alot from that.
How many virgin brides were there on here?
Respect to them i say!

By that I take it you consider the gypsy and traveller communities to be sub-human?

Sorry I'm with YC.

I've been in close contact with "travellers" several times (my parents live in a nice rural area).

When they were camping there (on a public carpark), they left rubbish, crimes went on the up (minor ones maybe but they went up), destroyed local stuff. Generally they were criminals yet no one did anything about it.

Plus if i remember on the Pennine Massive theres a thread on the applby horse fair where they were throwing stones at bikers (who were riding) cos the horses didnt like the noise.

Imho the people on this show are just fairly strict catholics with all but arranged marriages. Married at 16 (not hard to be a virgin at 16 really)??! Yea cos theres yer bloke/girl yer going to be with for life. Also stereotyping to hell (women stay at home pop out babies and do nothing the man works wtf is this the dark ages?!!).

Seems to me they werent travelling and they werent pleasant people (notice the one bloke was a bare knuckle figther for a career friendly much).
