   Well, there's my thing for the day!!   
      
   I had no idea what the word "pikey" meant so went searching ..... and   
   found that Pikey is a derogatory term for "Gypsy", "Roma" and "Traveller   
   people" .... when I HAD thought "Gypsy", "Roma" and "Traveller people"   
   were just different ways of describing the SAME people!!   
      
   But, it would seem they are different peoples!!
