Jack Roberts Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 We've now just received a picture documenting this event. Rumors have been spreading for years over this event. Capt'n John Sterling has refused comment on the situation and Quartermaster William Brand (formerly Capt'n of the Watch Dog) could not be reached at this time. We believe we have found a pictorial of the, now infamous, "Night in Barcelona". We do believe that this was early in the evening just before the real action got started. We can now see baboon was there early during the festivities. (Look towards the bottom left. OI the Capt'n is going to kill me. )
Lily Alexander Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 OH MY!!!!! Captain say it isn't so........................... ROFLMAO If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Capt. Sterling Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) Umm, that would be me sneaking out the back door, no shoes, stockings down around me ankles, as usual, the damned monkey is trying to follow.... that maid wasn't half bad.... Of course the clothing and likenesses have been changed to protect the innocent... Edited January 18, 2009 by Capt. Sterling "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
Lily Alexander Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Whew.....................what a relief. If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Captain Jim Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Well if that be William at the table, why is he trying to escape the lady's obvious advances? Not to mention her obvious...ahh...charms? My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
Capt. Sterling Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Ummm the "lady" at the table would be Cheeky??

Captain Jim Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) You tell us; you were supposedly there, sneaking out the back with the monkey. She does rather resemble Cheeky, doesn't she? Edited January 18, 2009 by Captain Jim My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
Capt. Sterling Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) All right, all right... twas not Cheeky, although aye it looks like her...twas **covers mouth and mumbles** some merchant's wife... **speaks clearer now** the man at the table is her husband... William is standing just outside the door, out of view... he is gesturing frantically for me to get the hell out of the room...I have my finger to my lips to make sure William doesn't make too much noise and get us both caught... William was in the sister's room playing with the damned monkey... he sent the monkey in to tell me to get out, the husband was coming home... Edited January 18, 2009 by Capt.

William Brand Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 After what can only be described as the consumption of suicidal amounts of various fermented flora, the good Captain's recollections of events are...enigmatic at best. After having repeatedly explaining the events of that night to Captain Sterling over the years, I am quite convinced now that no amount of narration will resurrect the deceased portions of memory that were temporarily acquainted with Sterling at the time. Sterling now relies on the worst conjecture, rumor and falsehoods to knit together what happened that night. So certain is he that some horrible event took place involving the baboon, that no amount of reassurance can set his dignity aright as it touches Barcelona. It should also be pointed out that even the "Night in Barcelona" is a misstatement, for the event as a whole covered the better part of two days and began just prior to noon of the first day. The representation above, for all of it's failings, does manage to show this by the demonstration of light through the window and the absence of candles. Â Â Â
LadyBarbossa Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 LOL... Cheeky... looks like ye can't be rid of that damned monkey either! Hmmm... I think I'll bring that monkey with me to RF5 (IF I am able to get to RF5). Now, um.... how many ladies do we all know have a monkey let alone a Moorish servant boy? :::Looks at Cheeky::: Are ye SURE that be ye sneakin' out, Sterlin'? Not th' one attemptin' to calm the chaotic atmosphere with surprise over Cheeky's wildness? Kicking a table... tis a good table, too! Where did ye get that from? Morracco? Ummm... so, where be th' wee Morrish boy now? :angry: He isn't... :::motions slicing the neck with one finger from left to right:::: Oh, th' scandal! Oh, th' drama! Oh, the gossip this will be so much FUN t' spread! At least we've somethin' t' tell at future events (especially one bein' so close at current). LOL... :::Evil grinz::: ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

William Brand Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 I'll fall back on that then and take the secrets of the adventure to the grave. Â Â Â

Cheeky Actress Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 All right, all right... twas not Cheeky, although aye it looks like her...twas **covers mouth and mumbles** some merchant's wife... ACK! Oh, fear not Mistress Diamond. The Captain said, "Some merchant's wife"...could have been one whom he owe money to. He keeps telling me that time spent with the merchant and their family is done so to benefit a good solid transaction. Lilly looks over at the Captain then over at Mistress Diamond. "Ha! How's that for transaction!?" Lilly says thumbing towards the Captain's direction. Member of "The Forsaken"
Cheeky Actress Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 ACK! ....Oi and just what are ye acking about?? Weren't acking at the time... ...I stand corrected. Looks like you favor credit, Mistress.. Member of "The Forsaken"

Silkie McDonough Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 "Tsk, tsk, tsk." Silkie rolls her eyes, "I have heard far too many versions over the years to think that those two will ever be able to sort that night out. There have been claims from both sides of anywhere between one and five women, involving activities from conversation to business to passions best left to the bedchamber, fisticuffs and or sword fights with as many as seventeen men; at least four of whom may have been jealous lovers." "I can tell you that the man pictured in the wig was not William. I have never seen him in possession of a wig save for those he had ...errr ...removed from someone's ...head. John has not worn such a 'big' wig in years ...funding being what it is." Silkie smiles a teasing smile at each. "It is likely that there was at least one woman in John's company for I have not seen him spend more than thirty minuets on land not in the company of some woman save when in battle, which usually happens on water. William has admitted to conversation with a woman ...conversation" Silkie raisses an eye "...perhaps, William and I have ...conversed and if he was in such a state as to not remember ...I would think that perhaps he was a bit more inebriated than he has ever been in my presence. Perhaps the time in Barcelona is the reason he controls his intake so well these days." "The only facts that remain constant in each telling is that William Brand, John Sterling and a baboon were present and that the days all blurred together. Given that the length of time is one of the consistent facts I must admit ...ALL of the stories I have heard could be true. now if the lads could just recall in which order things happened for it has been a tale worth the telling since it happened ...well, since they recovered from it, and may be worthy of a song." Silkie's face flashes with some thought, a smile comes to her face and she scans the crowd at the Pub.
Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 *PSSSST; Capt. Sterling sir, I can take care of that baboon fer a small fee. I'll take it out driving! * Bo
