Happy Birthday... Hope ye get a good haul o' equipment and sundries to assist in yer re-enacting.

"The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning."

Cannon add dignity to what otherwise would be merely an ugly brawl

I do what I do for my own reasons.

I do not require anyone to follow me.

I do not require society's approval for my actions or beliefs.

if I am to be judged, let me be judged in the pure light of history, not the harsh glare of modern trends.

'appy Birthday, mate. Now you down a tankard or two on this momentous day. Not every day someone finally makes it through 21 years... Hope you have a drink on me, Nigel, Hurricane, the Goddess in the Boddess and Sloe Gin from the Pyrates of the Coast. Just make sure you send Sir Nigel the bill. Otherwise, the incriminating New Year's photo may be posted if he doesn't treat you right at the bar, eh Hawkyns...
