Half the village is practicing pirate noises. Har-harrrrr!
So, remember about Baltimore being sacked in 1631 - the whole village nabbed by Algerian pirates and sold as slaves in North Africa? Well, there be a pirate play, complete with pirates; and we be doing a read-through this evening. [And I ask myself, why does pirate-ese sound so curiously Devonian...]
Of course, not everyone gets to play a pirate. Because in addition to nefarious swashbuckling nabbers, the tale needs nabbees as well...
Little sigh.
And somehow I'm reminded of the Pastaferian religion - doesn't being an adherent of Flying Spaghetti Monsterism mean that you get to dress up as a pirate once a year? [Invisible pause while I look that up...] Yes! 19 September: International Talk Like A Pirate Day.
Most excellent!
