Census form

[Dee Sa]

mine came yesterday and I managed to drop marmalade on the first page but it wiped off okay !
It seemed easy enough to complete for me and PLS [hubby is known as The Phantom *** Spotter because if any female upsets him they definately must be one ! dont ask] as there are only the two of us,they didnt want to know about our two dogs and a cat, I have dated it for 27th, we are not expecting any visitors and I will post after that date.
What did make me smile was the ethnic questions and tick here if you are a gypsy ! dont make me laugh are these people going to fill in this form ? never and half of them cant read & write anyway, bet they dont get fined for not filling it in but I would.

"never and half of them cant read & write anyway," and you know this how?

[Dee Sa]

years ago I used to wait in a cafe in Rainham Essex for the bus, they were always in there and they got the woman behind the counter to put the songs on the juke box because they couldnt read the titles, then another lot would come in and she would do it all over again because they were all good paying customers.
Also had a pal who lived with one, for some reason he had been "drummed out" of his clan, we were going out and I said leave him a note[ before mobile phones] and she said no use none of them can read or write so we left a shoe and a jacket on the table ! dont know if he twigged or not !

I've watched Big Fay Gypsy Wedding ...
I'm now an expert on Gypsy culture.

On a serious note , I used to knock about with Gypsy kids when younger.
I still remember the following some 30 years later ...

They were hard working - the kid I knocked about with would stop and knock on doors and offer to clear rubbish on drives ....
Most dropped out of school young and can't read and write.
Very money orientated and would do anything to earn a quick buck
Home caravan was spotless clean ...

I find it quant that people are filling this form in.
Very British.
Still not got my form.

Dee Sa I find it very sad that you can mock people for not having the ability to read or write,not everyone is as clever as you.I also take exception to you using the avatar 3 Witches,do you have permission to use this logo from the Grand Council of Witch & Wizard Coverns Inc.? Take care!!

[Dee Sa]

I have always been called a witch ,when my kids were young I picked up the phone when it rang but had a mouthful of food so couldnt speak and heard my youngest son say "is the witch home yet?" I replied "speaking can I help you" and it became a family joke, the name has stuck some thirty years on.

[Dee Sa]

Part of my extended family are Dorset based gypsies, and strangely enough I've been able to trace them through all of the available online censuses.
