Good Morning

I think a gypsy wagon would have been fun to own.  At least he did have somewhere for shelter.  There are so many now that sleep under bridges or even on the sidewalks.  I feel so sorry for them.

Re: Taps

I think the gypsies probably made the hoops from willow boughs. They were quite good at improvising. As I have mentioned before there was a large encampment of them of when I was a boy. Some were moved into council houses and not many can tell the difference any longer.

Poor Arthur...but it was better than being homeless like we see so much of today.

I've always been fascinated by the Gypsy round-top wagons.

Amazing the indignities people have to adjust to in order to

live one day at a time. I hope the poor guy with his tin huts went on to enjoy the comforts of a cozy cottage.

Good morning

What a shame. A gypsy wagon sounds so much more adventurous then two tin huts.
