The peril of bored teenagers

[yoxi]

No mate, the gypsies up the end of the lane never gave me any trouble - it was the crazy white English boys in the static caravan estates with their huge SUVs (which they only needed so they could go over the speed bumps at 50mph) and throwing their rubbish out of their car windows - sometimes at me. They're too tightly packed together, I guess everyone constantly feels like their space is being invaded (plus a lot of them never made it past 12 emotionally).

Before I moved away there started to be a really nice east European community building up along there too, and I always felt a lot safer with them than with the Brits. So it goes...

I'm glad to be living in somerset now.

Note for the non-British: 'pikey' = insulting term for gypsy/traveller.
