The Fleets In!
Cap'n R. Dismantled and The Dread Pirate Caledonia Skytower, celebrating International Talk Like a Pirate Day with 100w Stories from the "George" canon. Or is that "cannon"?
by Laurence Simon
George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.
He was completely clueless when it came to the jargon of his profession.
For example, he had no idea what “landlubber” meant.
Was it a parrot species?
Maybe it was some kind of sea monster, he thought.
But then, why would his crewmates be calling all the townspeople that?
Or, for that matter, George , when he screwed something up really badly.
At the next port, he went to the library, and he asked for a Pirate-to-English dictionary.
“You are a total landlubber,” said the librarian, and threw George out.

The world’s fascination with monsters harks back to the dawn of civilization – and even to prehistoric times – when mankind first sought to explain the magical and capricious forces of nature.

@2:30pm - Dance Party! on the Jolly Roger Hotel deck, an hour of 1940s dance music with DJ Caledonia - enjoy the music and the ambience, and cut a rug or two.
** About the Story:
Enter the world of Christie's 1941 novel at a seaside resort: the Jolly Roger Hotel, inspired by Burgh Island on the Devonshire coast of England.
It seems that no matter how hard he tries, Hercule Poirot never quite gets a holiday. This story sees him in Devon, Agatha Christie’s home county, and, of course, among the scantily clad sunbathers, a murdered woman is found.
It was not unusual to find the beautiful bronzed body of the sun-loving Arlena Stuart stretched out on a beach, face down. Only, on this occasion, there was no sun… she had been strangled. Ever since Arlena’s arrival at the resort, Hercule Poirot had detected sexual tension in the seaside air. But could this apparent ‘crime of passion’ have been something more evil and premeditated altogether?
