greetings fellow fair and honest traders

this has bugged me for a while, but does anyone know if pirates/sailor's of the GAOP had tattoos (i'm pretty sure they did), if so is there any records of such and descriptions?

i ask as tattoos are abit of a hobby of mine!!!

hi paul,

well there could be up to 12 of us sheppey pirates making our way to london. you just say where and when

Now don't be askin us how it came to called such - it nay doubt involved far too much grog - but our crew's vessel be bein' named the "Salty Sea Pig". 

er, we haven't got that ship anymore, it knd of, well sort of like, caught fire mysteriously!

we's seen a new one, and it might be renamed the "THE SEA RAM". that's once we've captured her

the ship we now sail in search of plunder is "The Black Ram"

which fits nicely with our flag "The Jolly Ram"

if my memory serves, the carrots in question were cat 'flavoured' ?

and didnt you 'win' a slave boy? filch wasn't it?

we sheppey pirates have a lil' initiation which involves what is known as a mud flap.

vodka

bacardi

baileys

coke

mix together, leave for a couple mins and then down in one.

what's the question again?

youse be getting a flea in the earhole young master filch, watch what you say, because we're watching!

mmm, take it the IT teacher hasn't turned up again.

It came from The Sea Gunner's Companion (1702). I'll try to print the relevant pages off for you and bring them to Windsor.

thanks ed. i'll only be at windsor on the fri 20th helping set up. i won't be staying

you've only just watched the first one 'Barney!!!

you take years to get round to watching films!

hi ed,

where did you find this list? is there any chance you send it to me some how? i'd liked to have a good read of, it would help me with several little 'projects' i'm up to.

"Gentlemen, how many Sheppey pirates are there? Ye gents seem t' be everywhere on the pub now and armed t' the teeth."

there be just short of 40 sheppey pirates. youse probably never see the whole crew together on land, 'av to leave a skeleton crew on the ship! check out our web page, in the scurvy swabs section there be just over hailf the crew's photos.

that's interesting, did it list the cannon sizes and swivel guns? i spose the muskets listed included those carried by marines?
