micky 3,325 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 I have seen Kids dragged off for Skate Boarding in Tesco Car Park never mind driving Hoss % Carts through the Town Centre ? there is plenty of land there why don't they take it out in the Fields , that Boke who bought a Frock for his Kid costing £60 could have got that in Leicester Market for thirty Bob. I did not think the price of the Horse that the Fellah sols was right because where I live in Leicestershire there is a Traveling man called Tacker he had 90 ponies on the land next to my house and told me they were worth nothing and said he could not even sell them for Meat as the Market had collapsed . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a shame that only the dopes seem willing to go in front of the camera ,I used to go every year and there are some real interesting ,fascinating characters there ,decent people who cringe at a lot of what goes on around them . 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pesky1972 4,927 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Is most of it really any worse than other well attended festivals? Would be a travesty if this was stopped after hundreds of years. Had to laugh however, hearing them complain about their traditions not being respected by the police.., when they give zero fcuks to the lives of the local people who can’t get moving for them all week. And from what I could see they get away with murder. Wonder what the coppers would do if I let my kids drive a horse and cart at high speed up a busy street. As been said I think the film focuses on the idiots. And typical of most of these kinds of conflicts a wee bit of give and take would go a long way. But maybe Appleby, like most of society now, is full of selfish wank3rs who cry victim the minute anyone challenges them on their behaviour. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
