    This video is when my mother Eileen Smith of Colchester married Leon Petulengro. They were divorced after 2 years. Neither of them were real gypsies. Father Xavier P was a friend of my grandfathers.
    His real name was Walter Lloyd-Smith.

    They all headed out to the fields to do the true Romany wedding and do 'the BARBARIC Romany rites', that is an example of British reporting, prejudice and blatant racism.

    The Romany traditions and ceremonies are not much different than handfasting and jumping the broom/fire. It was almost a perfect wedding (too bad about the priest/church).

    The term "Gypsy" is disrespectful and wrong. They were treated horribly and during WWII 600,000 we killed in Concentration Camps. The proper term is Rom.
