A skollie is someone who had decided that he wants to live a criminal life out on the street. He is usually dirty and unkempt with an unpleasant smell hanging around him. He is too lazy to work, although he will sometimes do odd jobs to get his hand on some money. Many skollies are full time robbers and even housebreakers, but they only make enough for the day's supply of drugs. Real gangsters look down on them, although they sometimes use skollies for certain dirty deeds that they don't want to get involved in themselves.
In The Skollie, a part of the life of such a skollie is illuminated. Be prepared to be surprised.
