To this day I've never seen any Romany people that I can remember, except on TV and the computer. We had them in Florida (as it was very cosmopolitan compared to here), but I guess they were there and gone so fast that I kept missing them.
Congratulations on your 1000th post.

I have studied their culture at length, but primarily through their dance.
We studied this in 2009. Clusium can you guess her hand gestures? ...and

Refer to the Elizabeth Strong video:
1. She is punching her fists = crushing garlic for dinner.
2. Running her hand down her arms showing off her bracelets.
3. Flicking the sweat off of her brow from hard housework.
4. Gathering up her skirt and rubbing it = doing the laundry.
5. Housework is hard work but joyous.
That is according to Birnur, my teacher from Turkey.

You are welcomed. It was fun to learn and dance. Note her hip movements, very Romish.

Gypsies in this country (UK) cause a lot of trouble wherever they go, and are generally a nightmare for the council and local population of their campsites. This is something that almost all non-Gypsies unanimously agree upon.

This is something that almost all non-Gypsies unanimously agree upon. They also suffer a lot of racism in the various countries that they travel through. |
