A quick note to be sure of certain facts…
The BBQ is on September 18th, not 19th. We are raising a pint to Talk Like a Pirate Day one day early, don’t you know, to get a jump in the wind.
You do not *have* to dress or talk like a pirate. You may be called upon to walk the plank and speak with the fishes in the clear cold sea (or not). As Scott says, “No, you don’t have to dress like a pirate, and talking like a pirate won’t be required, but it’s possible there might be pillaging going on.”
Avast!
