Can we distinguish between the Romanii, the Diddicoi, the travellers, the New Agers and all the other groups who come under the blanket heading of Gipsies?

The Romanies who have been around since forever have a proud and respected heratige. Most of the bad press comes from the Travellers who are serious rip off merchants and have a history of wrecking any centres set up for them, and the New Agers, many of whom leave their campsites literally covered in sh!t.
