Abigail Roughnight Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) An update for us, we're not going to be able to make it...once again. And as splendid as it sounds to drag my half-dead and beaten husband all the way there, I'll have to not Not that I wouldn't, I just don't think I would hold up well in jail and all The economy is killing our stores, with that and two managers leaving, it's just not the best time for him to leave the restaurants, so we'll have to miss it once more I am still around lurking and learning, swear it, with 2 years of reading and learning, I think next year we'll do alright. By next year I should also come to terms with prison time and in the event that he can't make it on his own, I will happily use force to get him there Nothing beats family time! Any how, just wanted to post an update so our spots could be used by someone else. Hope you guys have a blast this year, I can not wait to oggle all the images and read all of the stories.

William Brand Posted October 7, 2009 Author Share Posted October 7, 2009 I am so very sorry to hear that you can't make it, and moreso that it's for a reason impacting your life in a negative way. The best of luck with you and yours and we'll watch for you next year. Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Yeah, bummer. You guys were on my list of interesting people to meet (and write about) this year.

Abigail Roughnight Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Thank you both, really! Times are hard these days, for sure. While it's not hitting us as hard as some, we're obviously tied to a business that depends on people spending money, and not many people are spending money these days sadly. We're holding our breaths until the end of the year, that is when we'll see if it's time to hang it up on the one location, it's just not making a dime, the partners have actually put more money into it just to keep it out of the red since all this happened. The other location is doing well ironically. This one closing means yet another move though, which no one is looking forward to, ugh. We're both bummed about missing this year, especially since we decided to miss last years so we could save up and go comfortably versus rushing to get everything ready, we were both ready for the vacation then, well now we're for sure ready! gah! This just means more time and more planning and an even better time next year. I swear it! This time next year I'll be bat sh*t crazy so who knows what there will be to write about I hope you guys really do have an amazing time this year, and while we haven't met the whole group in person, you guys seriously are inspiration from afar and no doubt thought about often, we won't be there in person, but will for sure be there in spirit. Tomorrow we're going to the Fort Myers festival, it'll be a bitter-sweet time, but we'll take what we can get for now!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedJessi Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I know, isn't that fabulous?! (Me too) Even better - I WON it during last weeks pubquiz tournament finale. My team came in 2nd place and we each got 2 bottles of alcohol. I got the Kila Kai and a bottle of Lambic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Brand Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 I can't come. I won't bore you with the long details and the year long financial issues that lead up to this unpleasant conclusion. I simply can't be at PIP this year. The writing was on the wall over a month back, but I was still holding out for a miracle. Instead, we were simply hit with more troubles. My apologies to the fine crew of the Mercury. Those of you that have attended PIP know just how much I hate to miss it, and those of you who will be experiencing your first PIP this year will only understand my disappointment after you've been. I'm bothered enough that I may just put all of my piratey things in a back room until early next year. Best of luck and give the English hell on the battlefield.

Nigel Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Alas, me hearties, it is with a heavy heart that I answer the roll call... It pains me to say that I shall not be able to make this year's PiP. I would so love to spend more quality pirating time with my *ahem* "quality" pirate friends, but the situation won't allow it this year. I shall keep in touch with Hurricane and the crewe, and keep my eye on the horizon. I'll find a way to get down to FLA for some pillaging and drinking of rum. If any of you rascals happen to be going through Colorado, don't hesitate to drop me a PM, it would be great to get together! I've been landlocked for too long. Until then, keep a weather eye...
