Question:

What does 'no travellers' refer to?


It's a sign put up by publicans who don't want all the copper and brassware
nicked out of their toilet facilities...

'Travellers' = 'Pikeys' = 'Tinkies' = *not* true Gypsies who came originally
from Pakistan (not Ireland) via Egypt and whom all live in Rumania and Spain
now....


(Forget the silly books, websites etc. and watch the movie 'Snatch' for a
*far* more accurate depiction... ;-)

Oy 'ates pikeys........................
