Local radio reminded us that it's today! Have a good 'un!
Wikipedia explanation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Talk_Like_a_Pirate_Day).
What did the pirate say when he took his wooden peg leg out of the freezer?

Whose turn is it in the barrel? :-[
R!

I've been painting signs and murals for a pirate-themed shopping centre play area for the last three weeks. Just before that I was an extra on Vikings, all covered in manky, sticky fake blood for days. I've really, really had my fill of historical sea-based plunderers, so I won't be talking like a pirate today, thank you (unless you count the sign I've just finished for 'Polly's Pizzaarrrrs').
I haven't quite got the hang of the Somalian accent so I've not been able to do much talking like a pirate today. I've heard a lot of people doing Talk Like a Mumbler though (faux-west country accent).
Silly pirate joke of the swash buckling variety:
Most people think a pirate's favourite letter is R but actually it is the way of the C [spoiler](sea)[/spoiler]

Ahhh - are you the one who paints windows before Christmas in Dublin? I was thinking it was about the time I visited the land of my ancestors, and I might as well do it when there's a chance of secret 2000AD in-jokes.

Well... if you're good, I might throw in some 2000ad stuff again this festive season.
