I bought a nice young cob from a traveler man. And it turned out to be a great horse. My daughter rode him for years. Then i gave him to my uncles riding school.
I'm sorry for all the negative and narrow-minded people in the world. I love gypsy and traveller traditions. I'm sorry that more people can't feel the same.
What I love is that the Irish traveller community is a distinct, thriving and growing diaspora here in Britain. I have non-traveller irish heritage myself, and I've felt as if I've lost my sense of ethnic identity here in England, but the travellers have retained their customs and I'm proud to say we share the same islands.
Irish travellers are 100 percent ethnically Irish . No relation to the Romanies who have genetic connections to the population of Northern India . They have been in Europe for centuries .
Your mother-in-law and i could be distantly related, my family from my fathers side are originally from Ireland too. Is she related to Irish Travellers? Doran is an Anglicised Irish surname, it can mean wanderer / traveler in Irish.
@@tdoran616 The vast majority of traders who go English horse fairs are English Romany Gypsies. I've been going to them for many years with my family and until recently there were no Irish or Scottish there. The Irish Travellers who go are very recent. I remember a time when the only people at Appleby and Lee Gap etc were farmers and English Romany horse traders, also small markets selling tack, brasses, leather and so on. You saw no tourists, nothing like that then.
@@tdoran616 really soo u dont think whipping and smacking horses forcing them to go into a deep river where people push their necks down isn't horse abuse like are dumb stupid or dumb?
@@beauicelock7909 horses are very strong and resilient animals, the river wasn’t that deep and horses are pretty good swimmers so if they were to tire out they were very close to dry land.

Interesting. I never knew about the Appleby fair until this year. I’d love to get up there one year.
catching a horse like that with no saddle and no saddle horn is v difficult
my mother-in-laws maiden name was Doran. She lived in Liverpool but the family was from Ireland

English Romany gypsies
Irish Travellers, English Gypsies, Scottish Gypsies, etc are not genetically related to Romani Gypsies so it’s not accurate to call us Romani.
