    In that case you're just an empty-headed bimbo who really hasn't got a clue. And you have Irish origins? Bollocks. AP, we're not talking "Into the West" here!

    Pull the other one, it used to have bells on it before the theiving pikey scum had it away with me shoes!

    I would quite happily live beside an Amish family, I would know that the contents of my garage and my fuel oil would not be stolen in the middle of the night.

    When it comes to integration they are all very happy at integrating other people's possessions into their group.

    Give me a credible example of the "so-called" traveller community trying to integrate into modern society.
