| Hi Valerie. I cant comment on what you speak about first hand from living on sites cause even though were from gypsy family weve been off the road for years . Even so i can feel for what you were saying somewhere on here ( cant find it now ) about your aunt being sacked fer nothin. the babys a cleaner , or she was all her life till she got the rohmitoid athritus five months gone an she couldnt believe her ears ( she swore over it ) . Shes on sick now for five months an never got a penny piece . all the best. |

hello kilby, i'm in a house as well now. i have been for a few year, but i do shift some-times, then i come back to my house. you get used to it dont you. I have arthritis as well. It seems that a lot of travellers get it espescaily the women. our people the men get gout as well, I got it a few month after turning thirty, its hard to get on when you have it. its hard with work when you have it. its hard with any-think really. I'm not complaining though, you just have to get on with these things dont you. i'm not alone with it so i supose its a blessing.
I wouldnt like to be like some of the poor people who's familys are too busy and put them in homes instead of looking after them. I have my children and my husband and they are a good help to me. I'm not too sure where my conversation with victor has gone to be truthful with you. Our people try to work but thats not good enough, they try to get there own homes but agian it seems we're not allowed, we send our children to schools they arent welcome or taught in and we are it seems to change. How? we look after our young and our elderly, its a shame on our family if we dont, we teach our children to work, but again this is a bit difficult if we have no home to go to. when we by land or houses we are often made to leave them.we have been in this country for what they can proove is still four hundred years. so where we are meant to go to we still hav no idea. because we start asking for government to provide for us just as they do for the gorga people we are again told its us thats at fault and are in need of change. I 'm sorry but I dont get it either. I hope your alright. God bless. valerie. |

May the peace of the LORD be with you always. God Bless |

| My Dear Valerie, I could not help answering to you, because you mentioned my name in your post, you said that you don't understand were our conversation is taken us well I do, by now you must know I am an activist for my people and all the our people were ever they may be, I am doing my best for my people as much as I can, I sometimes personally help, them with all types of ways as you might know I have a judge in the Family and also my grand daughter is a lawyer, as I said some times these poor Gypsies need documents, so they come to me to help them get it for them because they are iliterate, so I ask my grand daughter to take care of this, and not only this way I help them, but many other ways! but I want to give an advice to you, you said that you have arthritis well, don't just say that it will pass, go to a doctor, he must help you you live in England, and England is one of the first world countries,I just cannot believe that you will not be atended unless you take at least five people with you, hospitals need peace and quaet,and as you know we Gypsies are always noisy, I promise not to talk to you about our culture anymore, write me who knows I might help Victor. |
