The fair brings trouble!

FrostedNipple · 22 Apr 2009 at 21:49

About twice a year there is a fair that comes to town. Every time it comes there is a massive increase in house-break ins and violence and muggings. The gypo's themselves aren't the problem really, it brings in all the council estate lot from neighbouring towns and villages, the worst being Bedford, Luton, and Dunstable.

Tonight is 'cheap' night (if you can call it cheap!). Well the police helicopter is out :rolleyes:

. One can only imagine what has happened. A few years ago there was a massive brawl and a person from our town was stabbed in the head with a screw driver. The following few years there has had to be police stationed in the fair with police present at all times.

I don't understand why our town or county council doesn't ban it. All I can see is an economic black hole, and increased crime rates. There is a permanent fair 1 train stop away!

Is there something that the council are getting that i am unaware about? Or are my town and county council like the government....retarded?

For some reason I thought about this wonderful song by the Macc Lads -

Get weavin'.

Well the fair comes down just once every year,
The Macc Lads go there when they've supped their beer,
So get weavin',
With the Brut 33,
And forget your tea,

We're going down town to get some chips and pies,
And I'll bet you ten pints I'll get you whipped tonight,

There's crack over there, sittin' on benches,
Two of them are dead fit,
And one of them's got dentures.
Get weavin', the blond one's mine,
Get weavin', it's nearly closing time.
Hey up my love, are you comin' for a ride,
We're all going to the fair tonight,
We're all going to the fair tonight.

I said, Hey up my love,
I've got a suggestion,
Hey up my love, will you feel my erection,
Hey up my love do you want a meat injection?
Your eyes are beautiful brown,
How's about buying a round?

I can't post any more.

Your eyes are beautiful brown,
How's about buying a round?

Stez is in the subway beating up a queer,
So don't mess with Macc Lads and don't spill their beer...

Get weavin', in Macclesfield,
Get weavin', and get your knackers feeled.
Kiss your crack but miss her lips,
She's got a scabby face and she smells of chips,
She's got a scabby face and she smells of chips.

I said, hey up my love, I've got a suggestion,
Hey up my love, will you feel my errection,
Hey up my love, do you want a meat injection?

Your eyes are beautiful brown,
How about buying a round?
Hey up my love, hey up my loive, hey up my love,
How about buying a round?
Get your knickers down.

I remember seeing them live when they played The Wheatsheaf, on their 'Beer & Sex & Chips n Gravy' tour. We must've been drenched in more beer than we drank and we drank a bloody lot!

Burn the ******, burn them i say...no but seriously i dislike them with a passion. the goverment sould ban all gypsies from setting up camp as it just brings crime to the local area.

arknor · 23 Apr 2009 at 00:11

You and your kind disgust me.

Amp34 · 23 Apr 2009 at 00:17

What town? Definately not Bournmouth as that's miles away from the ones listed.

I didn't think Bedford and Dunstable were particularly bad?

Darkst4r · 23 Apr 2009 at 00:26

I hate ****** with a passion. Every year they break into the field opposite my house and before you know it there is a small towns worth of caravans parked up. The old lady next door had her life savings stolen by them when two female gypo's posed as age concern and ransacked her house. A month later she was forced into an old peoples home.

Apart from the rise in crime around the area they while they are there they also leave a small mountains worth of s%$t behind them , anything from household waste , garden waste , old washing machines , furniture , babies prams etc (they obviously run some kind of illegal junk collection service and just fly tip it in my field.)
They are even filthy enough to empty their chemical toilets next to the path.

I've gotten so angry i've felt like placing home made thermite charges on their gas tanks while they sleep but being a decent-ish human being with half a conscience decided against it.

P.S this is Bedford I'm talking about.

i think people need to understand in this thread the difference between ****** and showmen.

****** are people who live in caravans and occupy land illegally.

Travellers are people who run funfairs and pay to go on council land to do funfairs.
please don't turn this into a "i hate ****** thread"

the council get money from fairs being on thier land its called rent,

Travellers ( People Who Are Signed Up To The Showmans Guild Of Great Britain) ay the council ground rent to go on thier land so the council earns from it.

The showmans guild, is almost like a court with very strict rules onwhat showmen can do.

You've never been to bedford

(grew up nearish to it, never liked the place)

Im also wondering which town, I was down that sort of area last week and there was one in Harpenden but i see that as a bit too far south to attract bedford kids....

I'm not sure what town the OP is on about, but I grew up in houghton regis, which borders luton, dunstable, lewsey farm.

The fair was the most exciting time of the year when it came, fights galore. Gangs turned up in force to fight, and the ****** usually fancied it a bit too.

I remember a few times, full on 100 vs 100 brawls. Exciting to watch. Until it got silly with knives and weapons mind.

Shouldn't really keep your life savings in your house though. Just because burglaries shouldn't happen doesn't mean they don't.

First house alarm of the night has sounded :rolleyes:

arc@css · 23 Apr 2009 at 04:36

I like the Macc Lads too. Brings back memories.

I was there too and at The kings Hall.

A few years ago I was fortunate to get Tristan & Geoff up on stage (Muttley and Beater) in the Nags head, Macclesfield and in just one song (Sweaty Betty) hell broke loose so they got off half way through the song.
About 2 years ago I rang Tristan up because I wanted some vinyl albums for a mate :
Is that Hectic House
Yeah
Is that Muttley/Tristan
Yes
It's me Dave blah blah blah
Oh yeah, I remeber
I'm after some Macc Lads vinyl
Sorry mate can't sell it anymore
Why not
EU directive & Trading Standards
Why
Because we're not lads anymore
Daft bugger

Anyway, he sent me 2 vinyl albums free of charge .
