Pirates attack UK

Post by cloud8 »

BRITAIN has suffered its first PIRATE attack in nearly 200 years — on the Mersey in Liverpool.

A cargo ship was boarded by two Scousers disguised as deck hands.

But they left with nothing after crew rumbled the pair and chased them off.

The ship’s foreign owner reported the raid to the International Chamber of Commerce’s Maritime Bureau.

Officials logged it as an “attempted pirate attack”, making it the first recorded incident to hit our coastline since the 1820s. RTFA
The scurvy dogs I bet left with nothing when they found no Rum on board. Arrr!

Perhaps Peter Saaaarsgaaaard was on watch?
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.

A Scouser is a Liverpool townie, with Scouse being their accent.

Christmas is festive time of year and everyone knows that festivities attract pirates.

I was on that ship this summer. I kept my hands in my pockets and didn't touch anything...

Really?!? What boat was she? I went for a short cruise once on a tall ship--the Barbara Negra (here she is tied up in Savannah)--out of Newport, R.I. When we had left the harbor, and the captain cut the engine, and we were driven only by the wind filling the antique canvas, I was transported for a thrilling moment to the 19th century.

Awwww...bringing back old memories. I grew up going to the tall ships festival....so much fun as a kid but far more fun in later years after I discovered rum and coats with big pockets. >;}

Traits also include wallowing in self-pity, stealing from their own and not winning the top-flight football league for at least 17 years.

I can't bloody well remember her name, but she had some scenes in the Johnny Depp pirates movies as well, though I'm not sure which.

Beautiful ship, though.

Whilst the girls in Pirates probably have no gag reflex left, the thought of any of 'em leaning over the rail tossing chow is a little disturbing...

Oh wait, what's that funny feeling down there?
