You are making a meal of this Keith and refusing to respond to all the other articles -proof enough of your obsessive and dishonest hatred campaign in support of one of the most common forms of prejudice againt Travellers
Your mate joins you in attempting to smear Travellers with the actions of one criminal Traveller family
AArguing with you pair conjures up a pictire of hooded man and burning crosses.
Youa are a pair of blatant racists - and people with some authority on the forum wonder why I argue with you!!
The pair of you make me sick
Jim Carroll
This - from a review of our double album of Traveller songs by Geoff Wallis, issued bu Musical Traditions - the review is sitll available on their site

"It may be 2003, but the window of a pub just a couple of hundred yards from my front door still carries the sign 'Travellers by Appointment Only' and they don't mean salespeople from the snacks industry. In many other ways, however, the lives of Irish travellers in England have changed substantially since Jim Carroll and Pat Mackenzie made these recordings of their songs and stories between 1973 and 1985 (with the assistance of Denis Turner). As the collectors note, the ready availability of the portable television was already sounding the death knell for the fireside gatherings at which many of these songs were passed on."
