Talk Like A Landlubber Day - Sept 20

[Detective TurtleHolmes]

One may, and thank you.

Having not visited the colonies in a great many years, unfortunately I can not offer you an answer. Perhaps the cognac will do in its place?

[DaveL]

Cognac, wonderful stuff, drink it by the gallon. Orignates from Spain I believe.

I must make use of a taxidermist in my employ. As I've now emptied anything and everything on 4 legs from my estate, I may have look a 2-legged trophies next.

Do you think the villagers will catch my drift? I'd hate to let that little snippet out of the bag. They are an awfully sensitive lot you know!

[black bart]

Cognac orignates from Spain? Balderdash!

My dear Lord DaveL have you not done your Grand Tour yet?

Cognac is in France, Spiders are from Mars and Venus and Mars are alright tonight.

My goodness how much sherry did the cook put in the trifle?

[DaveL]

Well er French you say? Darned continental countries Lord Bart! What we need is a darned good war. Awfully profitable you know.

Well, I dare say I shall be investing in a few munitions factories, if we ever get in a "little tiff" with Spain or France.

[black bart]

Oh my word Lord D...don't mention Spaniards to me. One happened to watch a spot of Bull Fighting in Valencia. After the debacle one ate at the Ringside Restaurant and one was served some rather suspicious lookin meat Balls don't cha know. One suspected that the balls were orf the hunfortunate animal but on making the observation to the waiter that they were rather small the Revolting Spanish Upstart said: 'Thee Bull does not always lose senior!'

[DaveL]

How horrible Lord Bart. I suspect they would be rather chewy and all that. Reminds me of a movie with Lord Chevy Chase, where he once ate 30 lambs fry.
Awfully funny!

Something very similar to that happened to my Mum in France (those Frenchies will eat anything!)

[DaveL]

Oh my stars! Eating a good slice of offal used to be reserved for my villagers. Those darn Continental types keep changing my steadfastly Victorian diet!

[Rev. Rowan Redbeard]

I say, old chaps. It would seem that Talk Like a Landlubber day will soon be upon us. Huzzah!

[Detective TurtleHolmes]

Oh, righto old bean. Let me try out the strain of a piratic term on my vocal chords...

*ahem* yeeer! *ahem*

Oh my, what fun that was!

[ciaran54]

OH my! it seems that talk like a landlubber day is indeed already here, that was indeed quite fast was it not?

NORT AS FARST AS MOY SHIP IT ARNT!!! ARGH-ahahaha

My most sincere apology, sir

[black bart]

Summon the Head Butler at once...who let the rabble in?

[Calico Jack]

I do say, my fine man, would you mind passing me a peanut???

[DaveL]

Why certainly Sir Jack. Would you like that placed by my servant in your sterling silver seed tray?

[pieces o'nine]

I say, Lord DaveL, perchance yon Jack wishes for your butler to insert that peanut into his b...


Oh! One *DOES* beg your pardon!

Whatever was in that last glass of cognac? One's natural decorum is slipping! One hopes one has not caught a mild (albeit embarrassing) case of Tourettes.
