well in kent yes the female head of familiy is often called queenie as a term of endearmment and respect, as is the term uncle, for good friends or people you have respect for, as many of those who know me often hear mw refer to uncle amos, or uncle john, although yes they are relatives they also demand respect from me. travelling queens is quite a confusing area, without being in mc colls head i cannot say definately what the geezer means, however, oftimes the very flash trailers, were of up to thirty feet in length, covered in chrome or stainless steel morcambe strips, false headlight, cut glass, formica lining and furnished in the most expensice coverings possible, made by westmorland or roma, cobdale, avro, carlight, and so many others, see roma caravans in your google box, these trailers were a result of ever increasing wealth among certain persons in the romany world through various means, good dealing hard work and of course it cant be hid, less legal means, these trailer were heavy and had to be pulled by trucks not hosses cars would give up after a very few miles, so these flash expensive trailers were also called queens, maybe thats the meaning, worries that work was being lost to machines, the stopping places were fast being lost, as today even travelling to different places can be frought with difficulty, ifn yous deemed a gypsy on the move, regulars stops by mr plod, searches, the as in a case only last sunday threat of illegal stopping in a layby, whilst a tyre was being changed, crazy but true, oh life aint easy or romantic, those of us that remember the travellin days often look back and wish people could tern the clock back now we is caged and pushed an pulled told to conform , well nah it aint gonna happen. anyways hope that through another light on the term.
