An itinerant social parasite found living on a barge on the British waterway network of rivers & canals. They can often be seen chugging along on the water, as they have to move at least once a fortnight in order to avoid having to pay their way. They are easily differentiated from recreational waterway users by looking at the face - the recreational user will generally look a bit stressed whilst the water pikey will be grinning like a smug twat at the thought of how clever they are in avoiding having to contribute towards the cost of the services they use. Most of them hope to one day live on dry land, a desire generally realised following the dubious acquisition of a caravan and a Ford Transit with a towbar.
