Thread gypsies, post 148 in actual fact. Thing is though Jay there are different types of Gypsy, my friends Daughter has recently had a Baby with one of the Sinti gypsies, we were invited to a party to celebrate their moving in together & their future plans. The lad is quite likeable & we were introduced to the whole family (too much to quickly & we were struggling taking everything in i.e. who's who & what relation to each other they held).
By the by, due to their culture the Parents (our friends) asked us to avoid the subject of their Daughters employment/apprenticeship (which she gave up for her Fella) as the Sinti culture places the Woman at home raising Children & keeping house ! So Women earning & being independent is a no go in their eyes, maybe it's the same in this instance ? Who knows ?
