Of course you're half Irish too Lin. Don't forget that part of your ethnic heritage.

I don't forget it, Anna; but the Irish are on the whole a 'known quantity' to most people while they might never meet a gypsy in their life.
And one of the things my blog will show is the way in which both sides of my nature and upbringing affect me and the world around me.
I've now made five posts on it so I'm getting there!

Nice. Good thing your grandparents decided to settle down in a house, or your father may have never met your mum.

Thanks, BA; it's still a work in progress. I really am sort of lost between two worlds - feeling deeply Roma, deeply British and proud of both sides of my heritage!

Nice. Good thing your grandparents decided to settle down in a house, or your father may have never met your mum. I guess that's true but then if the IRA hadn't forced him out of Ulster with their terrorism and murders he might never have met her either! And if both of them had been teetotal they might not have met either!

Many people when they have a holiday, they travel by caravan which is the same almost.
