Howay the lads
Starting on December 12th the lads come down from their home in the mountains and visit childrens’ houses in the following order:-
Stekkjarstaur – AKA Gimpy, The Sheep Worrier or Stiffy Legs.
Stekkjarstaur has a love of sheep milk that he suckles straight from the yews. Unfortunately, his affliction of stiff legs is a hindrance to this practice. It has been suggested that he had peg legs as the poor blighter was so stiff of leg. His special skill involves a bit of sheep rustling so the Icelandic folks would lock them way over this period. My own forefathers have done a bit of sheep worrying in their time so who am I to judge.
