Dreadful Nonsense

"I've read your blog. it's really funny. you should write a column." - Jon Ronson





Ahoy there, me hearties!

As everyone already knows, today is National Talk Like A Pirate Day. I personally have come in to work with my peg leg, my eye patch and a dead parrot that I found on the street, which I have nailed to my shoulder.

Some suggestions on what you can do on National Talk Like A Pirate Day (with thanks to special genius Wil Walker):

- work out in the Gym,lad.
- have open me'hearty surgery.
- walk to the studio of dead German record producer Conny Plank.
- find someone born late Feb' 94 and call them "Pisces of 8".
- paint your long johns silver.
- make a prank phone call to anyone listed as Peggy Legge.
- cover your acne with a little cross.
- put a bottle of cod liver oil into a toy boat, an' sail the 'Seven Seas'.
- pretend your little B&Q toolbox is a chest of treasure & bury it on a traffic island.
- find a circular church and curse its 'curvy nave'.
- place your expensive boots in the freezer to shiver your Timberlands.

Or just go find your pirate name.
