Unfortunately pirates really exist.
They use RPG's and AK47's and operate out of Somalia.
No humour there.
The Royal Navy is, finally, responding. Not their fault, they're at the mercy of politicians whims.
Pirates are killers.

Wow! Passed 4k a couple of days ago, now up to 4k3+, with a rather embarrasingly high RAC.

The Frogs have declared a state of emergency, and all able-bodied young females have been conscripted to the white-flag factories (sorry, John, but there goes your Christmas prezzie).

At the current rate we'll be past them this weekend.

Well done, lads.

Last year Facebook had a language option for "Pirate", which displayed all text on your pages in native pirate-speak. Very amusing, but if you want to try it, make note of how to get to that setting and put in back to English. I had a devil of a time navigating back to the language settings using pirate-instructions. Wink
