Meanings
-
(Ireland) A member of an indigenous nomadic ethnic minority in Ireland, the Pavee.
My genes would best be described as a melting pot – my mother is part Bulgarian Roma, part Romanichal (English Romany), and my dad is part Romanichal, part Irish Traveller – thus, it was hardly surprising when I was born a blue-eyed milk bottle.
