So...end of next week or beginning of the next...we'll be well on our way to Treasure Island and we should be stopping for fresh water at a little atoll I know.


We'll be doing a little digging while there and should be able to come up with another round of picks.

That, of course, providing we finish this round before we get there!
 
Captain, o Captain, sorry I be late!

So, it looks to be down to 2 Latakias and 2 Tonquins to be divided, a most interesting quandry! I admit to surprise that Penzance, certainly a name brand amongst pirates, has not been chosen -- perhaps the crew all aready has a horde?

Smee  :pirat: 
 
OK - we've got four pie-rats to go...let's get this little par-tay wrapped up so we can get back underway. We got some sailorin' to do!

Crowley...Gramps...Spud...Klutz! Where are ye!

Smee! Look lively now. See if you can roust those lubbers.

Sorry, just woke up, and am still not quite awake.....need more caffeine! (took 4 tries to type more)

C it is then, for my love of the Sea! May as well try an aro.
Click to expand...
You'll have to let us know who is right about this one, the selling sites that claim it's chocolate and caramel, or tobacco reviews that claim it's coconut

 :pirate: 
 
I be here, Cap'n. Waitin on that scallywag Growley to get out of the mess, so we can get to sailorin'!
 
Humph! I guess they're out on a bender somewhere.  


While we're waiting...I thought it would be good to introduce our XO on this little adventure...Mr.Smee!  Freshly minted as a new penny, Mr. Smee comes to us after an extended stint with old Hook over in Neverland. That ended badly foir them, but turns out well for us! Something about some lost kids and a hungry Crocodile. But then...aren't they all!  Well, their loss is our gain...since he made off with most of Hook's treasure...and donated it to OUR ship! Matter of fact, it's what we've divvying up right now...and there's more to come. So let's all give a rousing cheer for Mr. Smee!

I know you've all heard about "the black spot" - a vote of death to a crewman caught cheating or sommat. Well, we've just voted and Smee is being given the other side of that coin...the PLAID SPOT!  Congratulations Smee, and welcome aboard!

Humph! I guess they're out on a bender somewhere.  


I know you've all heard about "the black spot" - a vote of death to a crewman caught cheating or sommat. Well, we've just voted and Smee is being given the other side of that coin...the PLAID SPOT!  Congratulations Smee, and welcome aboard!

Thank ye kindly, Cap't, sir! I'll be searching the bilges for crewman Growley! He has to choose, Latakia or Tonquin! Of course, as mentioned, he may have the ship's copy of 'Playpipes' or the new issue of 'The Pipe Collector'. . . .
 
I'm betting he is hitting the lathe hard getting ready for Chicago! I haven't seen him at the pipe makers forum either
 
Good old Smee--glad to see you made it out of that Never Never Bollocks in one piece, and I'm sure it'll be a rotten, black-hearted pleasure to serve with ye! That spot o' tartan is well-earned, well-earned indeed, and the donation you've made to the cause shall not soon be forgot!
 
My apologies in advance, laddie-bucks, but I'm like as not going to be gone all the day--Cap'n has me scraping barnacles without the benefit of dry dock, if ye know what I mean. But since I'm next in line after Shipwright Growley I thought it proper to declare me intentions in advance, if that's a worthy plan to all and sundry...So depending on Growley's decision, I'll take either A or B, whichever be left after he makes his choice--I have lots o' fond memories of sailin' back in '92, afore the Yanks passed that meddlesome Naval Act of 1794, and what can I say, I've got me a sweetness for that pretty Kevin Kline lass--sings like an angel, she does:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/I1r_KUjRRxM" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Plus, I spent a bad week of shore leave in Bombay the once, and the once was enough without any "extras", and I'd sooner take an Albatross to a Condor tied 'round my neck.

Now, assumin' Growley don't take neither A nor B, have the brother behind me decide which of the twain shall be mine--I'm sure I can trust good ol Spud to steer me true!

A'course, if this is all a mite too messy for as clean a crew as ours, let the soup simmer 'til I'm back anon and we'll settle it proper then. Cheers!
 
depending on what growley and gramps picks me choice would be A, B of I
MIKE
 
hEY capn BH PLEASE SEND ME A PM WITH YOUR ADDRESS SO I CAN SEND MY BOUNTY TO YOU WHEN READY AND DO YOU WANT THE MO IN YOUR NAME OR THE POST OFFICE. I HAVE TRIED THREE TIMES TO PM YOU AND EACH TIME THE PM HAS BEEN SENT TO ME THANKS MIKE
 
Ahhh. So THAT'S why you sent the PM three times.

Mr. Mike...and the rest of you blokes...please know that I have been around the block more than once...more than a hundred times. I realize that you will need my address to send me your box. (DUH)!) So...trust me to send it to you...at the proper time.

I'm currently prepping an area where I can safely set out your boxes...a sort of work area, secure from Watson, my devoted companion...devoted to rooting his little busybody nose into everything that doesn't concern him! I wanted to wait to send my address out til I was ready...knowing as soon as most of you had it you would be compelled to send be your stuff NO MATTER what date I specified here, as it's always the case that only half the group would stoop to actually reading anything! lol

And Mike, I think you tripped a setting that sends you a copy of the PM along with your intended target. One way to check if it's gone out is to open the Outbox and/or the Sent box on your PM page. "Out" for gone out but not opened up..."Sent" for having been opened by the receiving party.

And all y'all...let's just wait til we come up in the proper order to announce our choices, or it will soon become a very tangled web indeed.

All this is expected...all this is why we're doing a 'trial run'...to find the rough spots and determine how best to smooth them before the big thing. So excellent, and keep looking for Growley! lol
