Well, I think your all very unkind to the poor travellers. I think that they provide a service to the community.
Think of all the work they create. They keep the Police, the councils and other authorities busy, when they would normally be sat around doing nothing.
They keep our countryside jam packed with all the stuff that we like to shift on green lane clearance days.
They, along with other useful members of society, help us to keep vigilant by giving us a reason to buy anti theft stuff for our vehicles.
And don't forget that they provide a rich source of cultural background to our otherwise impoverished country.
Just think. Would Ford have been able to keep the Transit as the top selling van without them?

The council could always give them a job tarmacing green-lanes. We get to use them and in a few months time the grass grows through and holes appear so they look like they did before  :lol:  :lol: We could still do lane maintenance as well

Good point! Perhaps they could collect all the burnt out cars and take them in for scrap as well. I see a plan forming here, but wait, if they were employed, that would mean they would have to pay tax, national insurance etc. Somehow, I don't think that would happen.
