OHMIIGOSH! This book is just full of awesome awesomeness! I haven't actually written about this yet but i am infact a Gypsie. Well I'm a half baked buck as my family call me, that means that i have one parent who is a gypsie and the other parent who isnt. They are called many different names but my family call non gypsies "Scaldie's" HA! Anyways back to the book. Yeah so Red Rowans And Wild Honey is amazing, the woman who wrote it, Betsy Whyte is related to me, very distantly. In her book she talks about many of my close relatives including my great grandad deaton, I never knew him by this name until i began to read this book, his name to me was always granda peter, in the book she talks about my grandad's story telling abilitys. While reading this book it made me wish that i was alive in those days, the camp fires, the story's, it all seemed so much fun. Although the hunger and back breaking work would kinda put me off lol. This book is the sequel to "yellow and the broom" i haven't actually read that yet but I'm planning to after i finnish this one, i really can't put it down. I practically had to prize it out of my hands to write this post. Anyways i just thought i'd share this with you. I don't know if it's published in the USA, or anywhere else, but i presume that it can be purchased online, or orderd at your local library. I really recomend that you read this book, it gives great insight to what life was like for gypsies in those days. I haven't really been doing alot latley apart from trying to clean the hell-hole i call a bedroom lols, yesterday i managed in record time to clean under the bed omfg i cannot believe the amount of absolute JUNK that i have acquired over the years its unbelieveable, you know those tin's of chocolates you get at christmas (eg: rose's, quality street, celebrations. there like mini versions of candy bars in huge tins) well i must have took about 6 empty tins oh and 1 tin with just the yucky coconut ones that nobody ate out from under the bed, at the time i thought it would be a good idea to keep those tins to store my other junk in but the tins just became junk themselves ahh nothing works the way i plan it to. Well i better go, i promised my mother that i would clean up not just tidy up according to her theres a difference can you believe that? There isnt one to me! what about you guys? Let me know your thoughts on this matter: Is there a difference between cleaning up & tidying up? IDK. Okayyy. im shooting off because if i don't get moving and cleaning this will be my last post before my imediate death lol.
Love Love.♥
