A beautiful fascinating trade im romani and a fortune you cant put a price on very rich of heart of people loved the pipe band as well i played in the biggest pipe band in the world in Edinburgh i would always help the showmen dismantle a ride in penicuik missed them last year due to covid i had to pray hard and succesfully i powered the travelling show people as i was chosen for this roll in life up to the high top GODBLESS us all from Ali Mack i had to Tar the way
I have worked on the fairs all my life and some things are a lot different now yet others have stayed the same, a very interesting film of how things were back in the 1960's.
My People...My Era. The organ music at the beginning is more powerful than ANY drug I have taken..it literally takes me back in time..my whole sense of being changes when I hear that... I become a Time Lord. We were an elite fraternity and all the tea in china could not buy you in...YOU WERE BORN INTO THIS. I was the last of my line to work the fairgrounds. Gypsies Tramps and Thieves We heard from the people of the town They called us Gypsies Tramps and Thieves But every night all the men would come around And lay their money down.
Absolute facinateing insight into the world of showmen" women" it's a shame it will never be the same again" and wow meeting gypsy rose lee freaked me out to this day" not a meeting I should of had dont think" wonderful short film still.
they speak better enlgish than today's BBC Commentators. Standards have fallen dractically. People at the bottom of society had better manners and education than today's so-called celebrities and Instaram influencers.
My family on Mum's side are Lee, I worked the Blackheath fair as a kid on holidays..no fortune telling bunkem..WORK was the operative word in this video.
My fiance last time she worked at fairground was a few years ago on Blackheath only one night mind. But she also used to work their as a child. She likes spinning the cars at the Waltzer and doing the Dodgems.
What was that women talking about, living in a caravan and not being at home in a house? All showmen have bricks and mortar homes for the off season???
