we had one in Cardiff this week and the council closed a main road through the city for two days just for this gypsy funeral - as you can imagine, people were livid and pointed out that there are funerals day in and day out, many of them along that road and never before has the road been closed - the deceased in question had been in a coma for twenty years and judging by the picture of the mourners published in the local paper, few of them would have ever known the deceased
