There’s a few that go in salons near me get the work done nip out to the car to get their “purse” in bounding comes the fella kicking off saying he isn’t paying for that and they get away Scott free I’m sorry but trampy bastards. I know not all are but the ones like that give gypsies a worse reputation than what they get.I remember watching My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding and just wondering why they all had so much money. All of the girls featured spent about £15,000 on their wedding dress. None of my friends even spent that much on their whole wedding! My dad said they don't pay tax, which checks out. I've seen a fair few near me who are dealers of various illegal things. But still it can't be ALL of them - where do they get all the money from?
A lot of tv shows I've seen about them, they complain of how unfairly they're treated by the police, without looking at their own behaviour. I'm not tarring them on an individual level, but when a traveller convention comes to town, there is vandalism, fighting, robberies, sexual assault. But if anyone tries to make them face consequences, it's all "The pigs are biased against us!"
The blokes are allowed to cheat on the women there’s nowt they can say or do about it they can’t go out without a bloke being with them it’s wrong.Ive seen women travellers claim that it's not all of them just a small portion that give the rest a bad reputation, but i don't buy that. Plus the women don't really know what the men get up to.
I know someone that worked in remand prison and they said it was full of travellers and it was common for court room break outs, either from the actual court or during transportation by a gang of travellers.
There is a big criminal element which is where the money comes from. Lots of dodgy companies too. They take waste then dump it, take money for drive ways then never actually do the work.
It's as bad as the influencers begging for free stuff. If you can't afford it wait until you can and do withoutomg that really gets on my nerves too !
or someone posts in behalf of a 'friend' needing this that and the other for their new flat!.
we have a local eco page where people list stuff away for free, things like kids toy's, small furniture items, balloon arches that would do someone having event next day etc but theres a few members who repeatedly post asking for specific items ..go and buy them yourself !
Lots of people tell them thats not how the page works - its for people to list stuff they want to get rid of its not a 'wish list' !
it's just begging in my opinion and i bet a lot of it is sold on!
Its all the joy of a new house isn't it? Being able to afford the things for itIf they can afford to move into a new property they can afford that shit, IMO.
I that were me I would use the stuff from the old property plus buy new. I
wouldn't like second hand shit from anyone.
Fucking this, I'm sick to death of it. Not to mention the fact that said people couldn't give a fuck about how I'm doing, they start their calls with 'quick question' or launch straight into their query. Fucking Google it and fuck off.Constant fucking questions. From everyone. Just use your own brain and see if you can answer it yourself and ask me as a last resort. Seriously I am so sick of it especially today. It’s like they can’t function if I’m not within arms reach of them.
You had better get those done for a BIG discount, if not for free!!Had a nail appointment at 8am. My nail tech over slept and didn’t show. Waited outside for half an hour before giving up and going to a Costa. When she finally wakes up she messages me and says sorry she can squeeze me in at 4pm. So I either have to travel home and come back and waste more petrol or hang in town for several hours and spend a fortune on parkingshe doesn’t wanna mess her other clients about by pushing them back.
Got up early on my day off for no reason too. So annoyed.

This is one of my absolute pet peeves. Tradesmen, beauticians, dentist, you name them they do this. As if your time is not improtant but God forbid you do it to them then they charge you extra etcHad a nail appointment at 8am. My nail tech over slept and didn’t show.

Near me there is a traveller camp, and also nearby there are often verges that get camped on. Almost each time a new group come, the police end up chasing ponies down the road because they get loose. A local farmer had to call for help because 3 ponies had gone wondering on their own across the village and into his field. Also, the permanent campsite for travellers which is about 5 streets away from me, often their kids are allowed to trot their ponies with those trap/gig things? They just swing out of the camp's drive without giving way to cars and are oblivious to other road users. We don't seem to get violence but we almost always get issues with their horses running off.My Monday rant is travellers. Our estate is over run with them in the summer and they are absolutely vile. They steal from the local shops, literally crap in full view of people on the side of the roads and are intimidating people who have to walk past them.
Since I've moved to the UK, I have yet to see travellers who move around who take care of the area and don't cause havoc. Am I being lied too? Does anybody have experience of travellers who cleaned up behind themselves and weren't absolute knobs?
Whilst I didn't actually ask for anything, my aunt did see a few bits (vacuum and a halogen oven) that she thought I might need. We went to have a look and paid. No begging.people on social media that say something like; I've just moved into a flat/house has anyone got any spare beds, fridges, tables, sofas
like wtf this is begging at its best. Buy your own stuff ffs
I've seen some adidas youth shoes with velcro. They go up to 6.5 as I often get the teenager shoes thereWhilst I didn't actually ask for anything, my aunt did see a few bits (vacuum and a halogen oven) that she thought I might need. We went to have a look and paid. No begging.
Shoe shopping. I need trainers with velcro due to my disabilities. Nearly every brand stops at 2.5. Going to have to order a new pair of the ones I currently have I think.
Updat now my exec tells me in our diary catchup that they have a team What's App and share phone numbers in case of emergencies. I have boundaries about this tp protect my work/life balance/mental health etc. Contacting me outside of working hrs as a below average waged PA to an exec that is only a manager is a BIG no.. I am contactable on email . teams and teams calls during working hours if you feel the need - and my Line manager already plagues me .. i mean micromanages me using those which results in sleepless nights. nightmares and a flaring or stress related IBS. I am NOT giving her or anyone else the functionality to call me 24/7.. work emergencies wtf are those even anyway? Aside from the fact me exec is only a manager, I am a secretary not a bloody fireman... what emergencies can there possibly be?!!!Hello and welcome to Micromanagement Monday. My Line Manager who is not the exec I work for has contacted me at least 5 times today as I wfh on petty little shit like telling me i need to send an email, have i had a handover note from one of my really busy colleagues who she was already informed will send it by COB late tonight and the most insulting one..oh I notice you haven't set up a sig file. do you know how to do it? here are instructions..
I am 55 yrs old. My last role was working for a Senior Director at the Bank of England. Do you SERIOUSLY think I'd have lasted almost a yr if I didn't? Lets leave out the fact that my Line Manager herself doesnt have a sig file..I don't email anyone anyway as a PA there is no need to..
This is the Line Manager who went ballistic the other week because I wasn't at my desk when she sent a Teams message - because i was in the toilet at the time!!!!
Ever considered that the main reason I haven't bothered to set up a sig file at the start was because I had hoped I would be out of here by now and went home crying on the first day?
from local experiences there's a lot of ermmm shopping without paying goes on... perhaps they never spend anything they makeI remember watching My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding and just wondering why they all had so much money. All of the girls featured spent about £15,000 on their wedding dress. None of my friends even spent that much on their whole wedding! My dad said they don't pay tax, which checks out. I've seen a fair few near me who are dealers of various illegal things. But still it can't be ALL of them - where do they get all the money from?
You still had faith? Trains have been well and truly fucked fo donkey's years.Slowly Loosing faith in public transporthad a fab day out in London today with my daughter, went to get train home delayed! Got on train 30 mins later to find they were terminating it nowhere near to our destination, they made us get off and told us another train will be sorted, they then announced another train will be coming then 10 mins after that it’s now cancelled and if we want any hope of getting home tonight (after a long day I might add) that we need to get on another train to take us in the complete opposite direction to then have to get another train ffs! So now I have had to get a taxi so more money spent already spent a fortune today beyond a joke how unreliable the transport system is and yet they want us to use it it’s the 3rd time I’ve been left down by train cancellations
