Those caravans were so gorgeous. Absolutely amazing. I'd love to have one. What a difficult, but interesting way of life back then. I'm so glad they preserved this footage, that someone thought enough of them to record these videos.
I've lived 20 years in a caravan now. Nothing like it.
Been there, done it for many years of my life, a mix of the finest days of my life with the hardest most grueling. Im old and not so strong anymore, so the comfort of a house is more appealing to me.😊
Hard times back then, travellers had nothing but where happy.
Grand film some lovely kit and good people . Thanks for posting .
Love this short film and there way of life 🙌
These people have more joy in simple life than you do.
...than people who take tests to win a salary to consume pre-made products from overseas.

The old days when life was simple but hard.
@@sapphireblue6241 My good friend Terry Fruin had an argument with his mother when he was 15 . He thought he'd got his size and cheeked her . She pulled up the road spike that she hung the cooking pot on an threw it in his direction . It went straight through the calf of his leg !
When he was 16 he was sleeping during winter under the wagon with a canvas sheet around the body of the wagon . To help him keep warm he cuddled the Lurcher dog . When he woke up in the morning , the dog had frozen to death .
When he was imprisoned in Parkhurst on the Isle of Wight during the 1970's he was the second strongest man in England . The Guinness Book of World records refused to acknowledge his feats of strength because he was incarcerated .
He died 25th January 2016 adged 75 . One of the nicest people I ever met , he didn't want anything from you .
RIP Terrance M8 .
To all the settled folks watching and commenting that they’d love to have their own painted vardo, answer me this one question, would you allow them to camp in your garden? I remember the beautifully painted vardo my great aunt had on her farm. She had allowed a gypsy family to camp on her farm but then, incorrectly believing them to have stolen her silver which my mother still has, she chased them off into the night, firing at them with her shotgun. They were so terrified and desperate to get their children out of harm’s way that, when the wheel stuck in the mud and broke in the panic, they abandoned it on the spot along with their horse and all of their worldly belongings and she kept it there as a decoration until the bank destroyed it after seizing her farm when she died in 1980. You see, all the different types of gypsy were once settled people and the very reason they had caravans in the first place is because they have always been kept on the move by prejudice and persecution, enshrined by vagrancy and other prejudicial laws. They painted the wagons because those were their homes and by reason of dignity, not so they could become garden decorations for the homes of the very settled people who complain about litter and lack of ‘proper’ education and keep them on the move. If you would have the caravans, would you also have the people who live in them? It’s far too long people have ‘appreciated’ the cultural artifacts, lands and resources of the very peoples they villify, persecute, jail and legally murder!

Beautiful but I am Romany and the static notice no
What kind of food is that at 1:35? What kind of dishes would they have eaten?
Steak possibly bacon...
Never welcome in England, people with no property are treated as nothing. It is still the case.
