Talk Like A Pirate Day

[ABAuntie]

Ahoy there mateys!

How it be going in the depths of AB land?

Today is talk like a pirate day so I want to hear about swabbing of the decks instead of housework, a swig of rum (or tipple of your choice) and all things nautical and piratey.

Arrrr me hearties, this old sea dog is about to set sail in the company of a crew of mutinous rogues and scurvy salts in search of golden liquid treasures.

Avast ye lubbers,while I tell you a terrible tale.We had barely sailed a league or more when a tempest arose,dis-masted our vessel and forced us to take refuge in the nearest haven.Luckily the natives were friendly and in return for a few pieces of eight plied us with copious amounts of grog and vittles before returning us to our home port, but worse was to come,my pirate wench who had spent the night cutting the bad bits out of the salt pork and tapping the weevils out of the hard tack,as all good wenches should,had found and over indulged in a bottle of sloe gin and promptly dispatched me to the brig with keel hauling being the least of the dire punishments to follow, so now I languish in my cell cell with only a Scot called Morangie to keep me company while I await my fate.
