As many of you will know, last tuesday the 19th was International Talk like a Pirate Day. This year we decided to take advantage of that and go all out with a well planned Pirate party. We started the day in the Island Bay park, where we comandeered the pirate ship in the playground and cast our Pirate flag upon the crows nest. Within seconds our ship was being raided by countless school children, we stood our ground and their teacher eventually gathered them up and took them away on their feildtrip. We then moved to the gazebo in the park for shelter and used the handy power outlets to power our portable sound system to play Pirate Shantys, soon the weather got the better of us and we returned to our home. As the night progressed, many guests all dressed as Pirates joined in the festivities and we all got drunk on rum and had a great time shouting pirate shantys and swashbuckling... Aaaarrrgh, if only Talk like a pirate day came more than once a year!!
