McBarnacle Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Hi all, Well, Sea Sheppey was a great success the weekend before last with several of the UK's pirate crews all converging on sunny Sheppey for all sorts of capers and shenanigans. - despite the Royal Navy's attempts to put a stop to it We've got loads of photos and some of them are actually publishable. They'll be added to the Sheppey Pirates website in due course and then we'll let you all know when they're up and on the 'net.

Fox Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Actually I think it may just be an optical illusion... the flash and smoke are actually one of Cutlass's farts being ignited by the guy in the blue hat.

Blaming the Musket Eh? Foxe? If I remember rightly you couldn't get the cannon primer to light either. I think that you are just an antidote to black powder.
