Lady I'm Midnight

I am member of Burinot tribe, we come from the eats of Romania, we are Roma, We are hated in our own country and despised in most others.People think we are like tinkers, like Irish, like thieves, but we not . We are proud people, we have long long history, we roam around eastern baltic sea for many centuries. We have a culture that is older than moguls, older than Russ, older than Ottomans.

We are feared and hated, we are persecuted, we live on the edge, we don't mix well. We do not let marry our women to men of other race, we keep in family. My father he is uncle and cousin both to my mother in law, so very close family, bit like the family of Balerno in Scotland where first choice is to marry cousin, second choice is to marry auntie and third choice to live in sin with sister. Produce very nice children, but eyes a little too close together.

We noble people, we have own law, you steal you pay, for first time cut off finger, for second time cut off hand. After that you slice a little here, cut a little there, so we known as original little people.

Our young men very fierce, fight good, drink good, marry good cousin. Also breed good horse, very nice with flowing mane, sell good price. Or sometimes sell wife keep horse, horse not nag , you get it ? Old Roma joke.

Grandmother head of family , she know recipe for long life, she now 108 year old and marry three men. Hava many child, my uncle, my brother, my cousin, very close family. She make peg from aminal bone, she weave a very fine cloth for table and shoe horse in best fashion better than man.

She know all about plant, can brew tea to cure virginity, make man poultice for him length very fine and strong like horse, make cure for old man failing with brain, give him rosemary root, he remember when he child and make pee pee all night in nappy, return to him childhood. Very clever womans. She tell all fortune to the young womens of tribe, pick good boy, drain quick, take male child to grandmother, him strong with good root, marry him sister, very force family .

No one know where we go next, have heard good land in place call Angus, same like head of tribe in 13th century. Good soil grow raspberries, make good potion, drink strong, live fine by seaside. Extract of donkey urine make young men pick many berry, marry young girl from farm then inherit farmhouse, move in grandmother, soon all Dundee Roma town. Set up tent on LawHill and colonise Hilltown . Good idea new stock, strong very strong. Next stop Perth !
