Gaargh, tis a day of woe for ye naturally cheery crew of The Grim Bastard.
Me pet albatross, Peregrine, was tragically immolated in a freak slave-brandin’ accident.
Twas the fault o’ no man. Peregrine’d often shown a peculiar fondness for nuzzling up to ye fortune- and freedom-free passengers we sometimes carried.
Billy No Mates (envious o’ Peregrine’s pal-making skills) postulated this as an attempt to pluck at their man-eggs in an unspecified avian plot.
I suppose ye hottened coals might’ve struck the bird as in need of nestin’.
As the mad old thing dove upon them his beautifully varnished wings caught light. We’d only just shined him up, so’s he’d look his best at the Pirate Pride swim-off next Tuesday. Gaaargh.
O’ course he were not content to simply smoulder away, oh no. He flew in a sparking arc through me sails and crashed blazin’ into me good rum.
Now I’ve got to glue feathers to Neville, me tortoise or I’ll never outshine Captain Aaaarsbeard next week.

I would like to thank you for the efforts you have put in penning this website.
I really hope to see the same high-grade content by you later on as well.
In truth, your creative writing abilities has encouraged me to get my very own site now 😉
Hey there! I know this is kind of off topic but I was
wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with
hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform.
I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
