Any British people or Britain-knowledgeable people around? I've got a question. The Travellers in the book discussed in this article: [link] -- they are New Age Travellers, not Roma, correct?
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I thought of him when we were taking a staple out of one of our designer's heads at the office the other day. (The head of one of the designers, that is, not a designer with multiple heads, one of which we took a staple out of. To be clear.)
I love The Sting. Love. And Angel-era Wesley wins out over just about anybody I can think of.
My cat once bought a gun. Hubby had left his computer on an auction site, with the mouse too close to the Buy It Now button. He also came very close to buying a yacht, and for that he had to change windows and scroll down.
Hah! I remember that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh. I wasn't thinking of those Travellers--Britain has non-Roma Travellers that aren't new agey at all, they're old. I think of them as primarily Irish, though that's probably narrow on my part.
