Subject: RE: Folklore: Travellers contribution to folk song
There are a number of occasions when the word is used a verb. There is sometimes talk of going Gypsying. I'm not too keen on it myself. There were some furniture restorers in Surrey who called themselves the 'Junk Gypsies'. Not my cup of tea I'm afraid. However its not as offensive as taking the first three letters and adding a P and O. By the way I'll be in touch soon Tim.
