VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Edwin|DATE|1363187178|CONTENT|We did better in the destitute stakes. My wife years ago was accosted by an apparently destitute gypsy woman.  This woman admired the baby with her filthy hands moving the pram covers to see better. Blessed the baby and moved on to my wife&#039;s relief. Later she discovered the fifty pence piece the gypsy had left in the pram. 

Does anybody still follow the custom of giving silver to a new baby?|EMAIL|aeduin@aol.com|IP-ADDRESS|92.15.116.166|MODERATIONFLAG|
