Wearing very, very large trenchcoats.
Careful now.
According to mom, my real parents were gypsies who switched me for her kid at the hospital.
A Hungarian will offer you his house. A Rumanian will steal it.
The Hungarian will offer to sell his mother. The Rumanian will deliver
Several thousand more jokes in this vein. Use the old noggin.
Ah well, back to hoodie inventory.
No chance.
They all have huge overbites.
They are scary. Visit any country in Europe, and you will be warned. The children, working as beggars, are the most unexpected.
My BIL, who is from Honduras, has a prime piece of ocean front property in Trujillo, Honduras, that is undeveloped and he and the rest of the property owners along that 20 mile coastline are having horrible problems with squatters as well.......
He and the other owners hired armed guards to keep the squatters out but I don't think that has worked out very well......
FWIW, the Bahia de Trujillo has the most pristine water on the entire Honduran coast line and would normally be a destination for hotels.
Unfortunately the remoteness of Trujillo and the horrible escalation of crime due to drugs and kidnapping in that country are destroying the tourism trade and chasing the hotel chains away........
Theres no point in acting surprised about it. All the planning charts and demolition orders have been on display at your local planning department in Alpha Centauri for 50 of your Earth years, so youve had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and its far too late to start making a fuss about it now."
Exactly! Some people just like to complain. lol
There went my last hope.
There is of course that obscure band of East Coast Gypsies known as the Romani Dentoris.
They are know to practice infant orthodontia.
Snek worshipers I hear.
Maybe it was stolen by a Romanian Princess who runs a gambling ring in Oregon?
This happened in ROMA nia ? Self explanatory?
Yeah, I can just envision a Gypsy caravan of horse drawn wagons, with the last one pulling a two story summer home as they travel the back roads...........
That happened to my family in Wisconsin. During the height of the depression my dad had just purchased 120 acres which had a 2 story frame house on it with a stone basement located on the back 40 in Adams county which they stayed at during the purchase. Because of WWII a two year interim from visits from Chicago to the placed existed after the purchase. During that time the house was removed board by board stone by stone and was built elsewhere. All that was left was the basement . Fire subsequently destroyed it.
I really feel for your extended family. And if there was a way to help people help themselves in a moral and a constructive way, that would solve so many of the ills that plague our south of the border neighbors.
There would be many American expats that would love to spend their retirement in such beautiful conditions, but the crime as you have suggested will make that transformation impossible, and other less beautiful, but safer regions are sought instead.
I truly hope your brother in law can recover what is his, and the peace and tranquility he sought will come to him soon.
