Vic justice, The picture of the mobile home is not a typical travellers home, That one looks like the one tourists rent out to travel around Ireland, It is correct to call them travellers, they take offence it you call them tinkers or knackers, |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by Vicjustice: 11:10am On Oct 02, 2010 |
xxcarolxx:This assertion may have been perfectly correct if i did not know the family that owned that particular mobile home. In fact, they are the Dooley family in Rathmore, well famous in Co Kerry and Co Cork region where they mostly do property maintenance and Tarmacadam businesses. They are pretty wealthy and own other homes and carravans. And as for the "Traveller" thing, you may be correct as i percieve that you're Irish yourself, but i dare not refer to them as Travellers as i sense some degree of racism in that, and i presume they'd take offence to be directly called so. |

The rich travellers do have mobile homes like this, but not all of them will live like this, No they prefer to be called travellers, its when peeps use the term knacker or tinker, they feel its racist, On the tarmacadam note don't hire them, as they can rip you off, or not put down the tarmacadam correctly, Even if you do know them well, Yes i'm Irish, |

xxcarolxx:It seems you don't so much like them, do you ? |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by xxcarolxx(f): 8:41pm On Nov 17, 2010 |
Vicjustice:Ah they are not all bad the travellers but you do have to be careful of some of them, Its like everything a certain few give dem all a bad name, |

xxcarolxx:To be honest, could you marry someone of the "Travel Community"? |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by xxcarolxx(f): 6:46pm On Jun 20, 2011 |
Vicjustice:Could i marry a traveller, personally no, the traveller lifestyle is totally different, and travellers prefer to marry amongst their own, |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by Vicjustice: 11:53pm On Jun 20, 2011 |
xxcarolxx:I appreciate your honesty. But if (by your own admission) you can't marry a man of the travel community because his "lifestyle is totally different", how do you explain being with a black African man, do you really consider the lifestyle of a black African man the same as your's an Irish settler? |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by xxcarolxx(f): 7:01pm On Jun 21, 2011 |
Vicjustice:The life of a traveller is completley different, as most traveller's live on halting sites, or are moving around the country. They will pull in on the side of the road in their carvans, where there is no running water, toilet facilities, they can cause trouble at the drop of a hat, Most of them do not work, The kids run wild, and are unkept, Most do not attend school, or if they do they go no further than national school. In attending blessing of the graves, the town will close down due to the trouble the traveller's can cause, So i'm sure the lifestyle of a black african man is so far from this, So no i would not choose to live like a traveller, But if you ever visited a grave yard in Ireland you can tell the traveller's graves straight away, There is a graveyard in Gorey a town not far from where i live, and the head stones are to marvelled at, they are transported in from Italy, Also if some-ones dies in the carvan or home they will burn it out, Though i'm not sure if they still follow this tradition, |

Me and my My family are here to welcome you and show you around as you know so many historic locations you will see everything in a different ways WELCOME TO JAPAN BRO |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by Vicjustice: 8:52am On Jun 27, 2011 |
OYINBOGOJU:Japan? That is a very interesting place, maybe exotic to me as i can interestingly note that i've never really been to any Asian country, except the Asian part of Turkey beginning from the east of Istanbul. Well, i appreciate your promised reception and hospitality. So, how's life in Japan? |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by bolame: 3:44pm On Jun 29, 2011 |
pls @vicjustic is there anyway i can make a jounery from morocco-italy-greece-france and finally uk or can i get a cruise from nigeria to turkey (cruise dont need visa) then from turkey to greece-france |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by Vicjustice: 7:16pm On Jun 29, 2011 |
bolame:Yes, there are ways to make these trips, but sadly, you stand a pretty good chance of getting killed in the desert or drowning in the Mediterranean sea: and for you to make it alive, you'd most likely need a rescue by the European coast guards in order to set your foot on land again; therefore, this would mean that you'd arrive in Europe as a detainee or as a prisoner. You'd be harboured and be given good meals by the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders, and then (after you've been well fed and deemed fit to return home) you would be deported back to Nigeria. Is that what you want? I can understand why the desperation, but still what you have in mind hardly works for migration now-a-day: this is the sad truth |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by bolame: 7:53pm On Jun 29, 2011 |
@vicjustice thanks for your reply, i will try my luck anyway |
Re: Italy, Spain And Ireland In Original Photos by OYINBOGOJU(m): 11:33pm On Jun 29, 2011 |
