When is the Pirate weekend?

[FullCircle]

Have assumed it's in same location as last year. Correct?

No, we will move 25 metres further north this year. but maintaining the distance to the high water mark. Health & Safety issues,ahem.

With a HW of about 5am it's going to be easy to get there. Slip down to Ramsholt the night before then out with the last of the ebb and take the flood down to Pirate Island. Yo ho ho.

Alright for thosse coming from the frozen north but what about us warm weather pirates from the tropic of Crouch, eh?

Cap'n Slowboat will be there with pirates Emerald Lady, chef Large Richard, cabin boy Elliot, with various wenches, spear carriers and n'er-do-wells camping ashore.

PS The good news is that Chef Richard has promised no home-made rum this year.

The bad news is, he's promised a surprise.

Health & Safety issues,ahem.

Do we 'do' Health & Safety?

I know I have said this before but this year I will definately try and make it to the pirate weekend by water and in my boat - well maybe, perhaps.

In Theory, there will be four boat loads of us coming from the Heybridge Basin Outcasts (outcast on the tidal moorings) Dissassociation: Orion, Moonlight Shadow, the aptly named "Freebooter" and the ketch which is spelt funny (polynesian sorta name) and I can't ever remember whats its name is.

Apart from our own booze and food and happy dispositions, is there anything else we should bring? We've found some plastic Cutlasses, but prosthetic wooden legs, parrots, Cannon and topless willing wenches to adorne the figurehead are proving hard to source. There are none in Marinestore's latest catalogue!

Erm, no club, no rules, no committee, no bars on attendance, no dress code, no behaviour code.
In other words, whoever is there is in attendance, sort of.
Pirate attire, barbecue kit and food to cremate together with your means of slaking your thirst.
Most of us have some sort of Pirate flag aboard, hoisted to masthead or higher.

No Dress code? I felt exceedingly underdressed whilst surrounded by the best dressed pirates east of the Spanish Maine last year! Be warned.

No, we will move 25 metres further north this year.

I've checked Google Earth and that should put YOUR barby in the middle of a large patch of mud.

Food and drink, plus the means to cook food if required, are the main things needed, but your last item, the happy disposition, is the most important. It's a great way to spend a weekend, even kids normally love it, so take a happy face and plenty of stuff to help the fun along. A cutlass or three can also be very useful, depending on how many times Duncan wants to be killed this year
If you find any topless willing wenches, do give me a shout, just don't tell the wife

Erm


I didn't say that dear



Honest




Ouch

My dear Mr Circle, what an excellent mamary you have, Mrs 6d did indeed make a bit of a tit of herself, made a bit of a boob with her top to the delight of some, and shock of others
