Just reminding you all that September 19th is "Talk Like A Pirate Day"

No doubt you'll appreciate the importance of marking this occasion, so you may want to visit the official website: http://www.talklikeapirate.com/

This dispenses all sorts of helpful advice and even gives pick-up lines for those would-be Blackbeards to use on the wenches that they fancy. Examples of these are:
  • Avast, me proud beauty! Wanna know why my Roger is so Jolly?
  • Come on up and see me urchins.
  • I'd love to drop anchor in your lagoon.
  • Pardon me, but would ya mind if fired me cannon through your porthole?
  • How'd you like to scrape the barnacles off of me rudder?
  • Youââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢re drinking a Salty Dog? Howââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢d you like to try the real thing?
  • Thatââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s the finest pirate booty Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢ve ever laid eyes on.That's some treasure chest youââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢ve got there.
So remember, September 19th ye lubbers! Arrrrrrrrrrr!!!

Ah! That explains why the Union Jack flag was taken down from Havering Town Hall yesterday and replaced with the Jolly Roger! :rofl:
I knew there had to be a logical reason for it. Obviously some forward thinking council worker was publicising the event in advance :D

(And no, it wasn't me, before anyone asks - I don't like heights!)

I get a picture in my mind of British actor Robert Newton. He played Long John Silver and Blackbeard. He was the best I remember. So many of the actual pirates were English or Scots.
