  • Well done, SUPERB Effort & sincerity....5 Stars....god bless......Rommany Honor....i have written in English because u guyz may not understand Old Romaness!! ;-] kudos again, folks

  • @stiglaa thank you I agree we Britsh Romanies are not Irish Travellers I think its a disgrace gorgers like Paddy Docherty (who really is an Irish man with no romani blood) pretendeing to tar all us together. Even the term Traveller which he flings about isnt an Irish Traveller label. Showmen, Scottish gypsies/Travellers would run a mile before associating with like his ethnic lot.

see all

  • @Msoneiroi well said :)

  • How cool you are! I'm not Romani (which is prob obvious), & I don't know if you intended this vid for people like me, but I really enjoyed watching this. I can't relate to it like some can but that's why it interested me, because I learnt things. If I have children I'd be happy if they were like you - proud & intelligent but not prejudiced.

  • Awesome video. Good job.

  • @27dreamweaver they appear at Applby with horses, run them around like a sports car pretending to be romanies when all they are at the end of the day are gorgers with a vardo, grai no gypsy blood and (from Ireland) we would never run a horse about like that. They dont have gypsy blood or language. We will never accept people like that no matter what they do or how much they try to fit in. They are just like new age travellers and the worst thing is people think we're all the same.

  • @MsOneiroi77 its insane what the mumpers have done to the image of the roma even at the fairs its a disgrace. mumpers will always be mumpers, vardo, gry, they will always be mumpers! nice vid guys

    god bless the roma

  • @zola0109 the term Traveller in the UK can mean many diiferent groups of Gypsoes and Travellers. These children are Romanies and speak a varient of Romani called Romani chib. They are not the same as the Irish Travellers who are Irish in origin and not romanies.

  • the travellers spik roma langwech???

  • @batrazdemelburnia

    Its better not to talk in the jib, as we all end up with someone tippoty dre mande, but I would have their vennor if they hurt me or mine.

  • I am a English Roma and very, very proud, so also are my chavvies. Well done on this video:). Can I also say that I agree with MsOneiroi77. We English Roma are not Irish Travellers. x

  • yer its kushti that people are understanding our culture because some people are nasty about our culture. must go need to feed the horses

  • English gypsies moved all over the UK England, Scotland and wales and are still there. not so much in Ireland as Irish Travellers are a seperate non related group.
