Niiiiiice!

The fighting actually seemed quite fair and a quick way of sorting stuff out. Nobody had weapons. It's no where near as bad as drunks fighting in town centres of a Friday night, using bottles and knives.

Is it really any worse (aside from the kids being present) then a city centre bar area at kicking out time on a Friday night?

They still wear loads of gold. At the Epsom Derby there are jewellery stands all over the ground that do a roaring trade. The men all wear the chunkiest gold neck chains and bracelets with huge pendants on them. The women wear multiple chains, earrings, bracelets.

not much different to a saturday night in any town/city though is it

ifancyashandy · 08/02/2011 21:43

The video-ing of the fight is no different from someone watching 'official' boxing on the TV IMO.

They were ref'd. They were supervised. They were not drunk.

There is HUGE money in bare knuckle fighting...for the big titles, that is. I know one Traveller who was able to buy his brand new trailer outright in cash with the proceeds of a fight (upwards of £20K). And no, I'm sure the taxman doesn't know about that income...

Tommy · 08/02/2011 21:44

this one is quite restrained!

ohmeohmy · 08/02/2011 21:44

bothers me that the mothers sem to know they're condemning their daughters to unhappiness but just do it anyway

bubblewrapped · 08/02/2011 21:44

She is a very pretty girl. Nice to see she isnt plastered in make up too.

Is anyone finding the weddings more tasteful this week? I love the name Violet! Smile

MoldyWarp · 08/02/2011 21:45

hes off shameless

camerondiazepam · 08/02/2011 21:45

Aw lovely lovely Violet-Ann...

FakePlasticTrees · 08/02/2011 21:45

I know for some other communities where very big weddings are the norm, it's typical parents start saving as soon as they have a DD, and remortgage houses/sell any assets and take out loans rather than just tell their DD's they can't spend £40k on one day. I assume the traveller parents are the same.

twirlymum · 08/02/2011 21:45

Violet looks lovely. Her mum looks nice compared to some of the previous mother of the brides outfits

Tommy · 08/02/2011 21:45

the bridesmaids look like regular bridesmaids Grin
