Arr matey, it fast be becomin' that time o' year again that many a scoundrel an' black-hearted dog be comin' out o' the woodwork to spend a day talkin' in thar finest pirate tongue!
But this year we be celebratin' Talk Like a Pirate Day (http://www.talklikeapirate.com) a little bit differently! Aye, we be settin' sail along the canals o' Scotland on a narrow boat, wearin' proper pirate attire and spreadin' the word for a full week before that day of privateerin' that we all be enjoyin' yearly!
We be doin' this not just fer ourselves though! Me and me crew be doin' this fer charity, and ye can be helpin' us out by visitin' our shop, donatin' to our cause, or by simply spreadin' the word (ye can be usin' this message as an example)!
To be findin' out more about our pirate event, or to be contributin' towards our charity treasure chest, then ye can be gettin' yerself over to our web-site at:
YarrPirates.com (http://www.yarrpirates.com)
Be seein' ye there me hearteys!
Yup, it's me that's organising this event along with a crazy little collection of friends (I'll post again when we have some of the pictures up on the site).
Any money that we manage to raise will go to a selection of charities, anyone who donates/buys merchandise will be entitled to a vote in deciding how the money is split-up between each charity (you can suggest other charities so long as I can verify that they are real).
This is a charity event so donations are greatly appreciated. Those of you who are able to make it to Scotland for September 10th to the 18th are welcome to check the site to find out where we'll next be stopping!
I'm also offering a free item from the shop to whoever can attract the most interest to the event. This will likely be a free T-Shirt or similarly priced item, but I may go up to as much $50 of shop items if we do well!
