They're still sort of there, more round the front of The Royal on Prescot Street and further down towards London Rd too. Thing is, its hard to distinguish them from the vagrants and winos. Saw one staggering about a few Sunday mornings ago and she looked like a cadavre; you'd have to be seriously disturbed to want to get within 6' of someone like her I'd say but, hey, each to their own..........
