Adel to the barcodes

never heard a West Londoner ,use the expression " dinlow " ,dimlow ,yes ,never dinlow , you from traveller stock ?

I'm not a traveller - although my great gran was a Roma who lived in Northolt (AFAIK). Spent a fair few of my years growing up in Owlsmoor - which is traveller central.

It was certainly a crash course in how to look after yourself!

Most are defiantly good people. You just can't back down though.

As I'm sure you know - they keep their cards close to their chest and look after their own.... but that's not a bad thing IMHO.

Most I know are thieves and scammers and a few jailed for murder but that's probably more down to the company we individually keep

Reckon it must be people originally hearing dinlow ( the Romany word for div ),but thinking it was dimlow ,and the expression taking off !
