Thank you!
Skeldonians are not like folks from East Coast and GT.
The estate was not grinding since January and according to one of my buddy who lives there, the laborers turned to fishing and farming of cash crops.

Hope I don't get in the slammer for this. Did it ever occur to you that some of the folks lived on part of their savings through this hardship? People who were not sugar workers were farmers and fishermen. They sold their crops etc. to the sugar workers. If every Skeldonian becomes a fisherman and or a farmer, who is going to buy their products when they need quick cash?
