In flys Sickle!

[Midshipman Sickleback]

Ahoy all!

Elizabeth here for those who wish to know real names, or Sickleback for those who like t'keep things simple.

So why have I joined a pirate forum?

Well that's easy! Pirates are love.

Ever since I was a little nipper diving into my Dads toolbox to try and find something worthy of the term 'cutlass' I found pirates fascinating. And so that sort of crazy love has now passed to today, where I find myself dressing as a midshipman (or on occasion Captain) for Halloween and buying a pirate skeleton hoodie. Mucho love. I'm also looking into re-enacting lately but so far finding something in the UK to the time era isn't coming up too succesful

So I found this place and...here I am :)

Welcome to the Pub. Now keep your arms and legs about you and just hand over the booty.

[Midshipman Sickleback]

I dunno about booty but I have a longbow

Thanks for the welcomes everyone :)

Welcome Sickleback.

"Welcome Lizzie! Never heard anyone proclaim, 'Pirates are love', before yer post. I suppose we hav' a few 60's pirates, too."

"As fer U.K. pirates, there always be some Sheppies lurkin' somewhere about here. They mayhaps just be the group ye be lookin' fer. They look rough, but they play nice."

[Capt. Bo of the WTF co.]

Welcome in Ms. Sickleback! And to yer inqiry as to re-enacting in the UK, might I suggest checking out the forum of Captain Twill and twist ol' Foxes tail, or the Pirate Crews forum as well. Good luck and long life to ye lass!

[Captain Emerald Shaunassey]

A hearty welcome ta ya, lass. Here's ta ya staying a while an' enjoyin the sights an' sounds o' port.

We've some silver tongued devils amongst our ranks, wouldn't be namin' any names but a Black Footed fellow does come to mind

These be fine pirates to land amongst - an' hopefully in time, ya will come to consider this yar "home away from home" as so many o' us do.

An' whilst yar buying, I'll take a nice tall glass o' ... water .. at least until the surgeon quits giving m' his "narcotics." Then, I'll be having m' tankard full o' Baileys!

Welcome aboard an' Happy Holidays ta ya Lass.

Hello there lass, and never mind them that tell ya ta beware..

Merry deftly takes Mad Jack's pouch of gold without he seeing, and tosses it to RAY, who adds that to the tab Merry has been making since her arrival..

we are a friendly bunch and just a bit wicked.. :)
