    In the mid 90's when i was doing a course in Skibb i remember being regulerly accosted by 3 drunks in the town who were always trying to get everyone who passed to buy drink for them in the off license.They all looked exactly the same so i presume they were related,and one guy had a really bad stutter and walked with a limp .are they still around,i imagine they must be all dead now?

    I think the one with the stutter was killed in a brawl a few years ago.

    The stuttering guy was by far the most annoying.You couldent go into the town center any day without being pestered by him.
