Lizzie Cornish: quote "they should have their Horse Fair taken away". Don't you think your use of the word "they" and "their" is a little insensitive in this context? It seems to me to imply that because one person, who may or may not have been a Gypsy, did something wrong, that other Gypsies should be collectively punished for it. Is that really how you think the world should be organised?
Or am I misreading your point?
    Also, at the risk of being tediously repetitious, may I point out that not everyone who goes to Appleby is a Gypsy or Traveller. There are plenty of horse traders there, not to mention ordinary rubber-neckers(even some folkies)who belong in neither category.
