Group did several driveways in my road, mainly belonging to pensioners. Overpriced and awful workmanship. One elderly lady was unable to open her garage door as level of bricks to high, they refused to rectify so neighbours had to do it. All the other drives look s***. i got no sympathy. Caveat Emptor.

Edited by Spiderman (09 Sep 2020 6.25pm) A mate had a couple of em knock on his door in Lewisham, he politely declined their offer of services but they wouldn't take no for an answer and tried to force their way into his house. Next thing he is having a fight with one of them on his front door step (and losing) luckily a neighbour arrived home at that point and frightened them off.
One more point |

I had one try to sell me knocked off fake aftershave in my local town last winter, 2 days later he knocked on my door and asked if I wanted my newly block paved drive sealed. I said to him "what are you going to seal it with Paco Rabane?" He was only about 25 so walked off a bit confused

got chased down the A13 by a group of them once after my 20 stone 6 ft 8 mate flattened 2 of them in a pub with little required assistance from myself. Fun times funny thing is another traveler we knew from a different pub found it funny and shook our hands.

Compulsive thieves and bullies ... they arrive in gangs to steal from our local stores and garden centres. The culprits are usually women and children ... whilst the men will threaten retaliation if they are challenged. Too many 'pikeys' hereabouts and seem to have far more respect and entitlements than they merit. Pure SCUM. Edited by Henry of Peckham (10 Sep 2020 12.07am)

What is it with people like you? How many travellers have to be criminals before you accept that we would be better off without all of them? You do not live in the real world. I never gave them a huge amount of thought until a coked up car full of them threatened my son, daughter, my wife, son in law and a couple of other family members for no reason at all a few years back. They were gone by the next morning but had we not been able to show the better part of valour at the time to protect everyone, it would have got very ugly. These people have no decency and the law doesn't want to deal with them. I Hear hear!

Many years ago had a good mate who was a tree surgeon, he had to clear up a disaster Created by a gang of pikey “tree surgeons” who a lady had employed to fell a large tree in her garden. A very large branch they had cut fell through her roof and was wedged in the bedroom. Needless to say they had legged it and left her to find the surprise when she got back from the shops. WHY do people employ them ?
