Yes, I would have thought it far worse to foster a cuddly image of piracy and suggest that it can be countered by tickling. Maybe the people who thought this up should be rushed to Somalia to see how effective their approach is?

Quite right, me 'earties... If me dog could sing, he'd done it long ago! Long live The Drunken Sailor, C'pn Pugwash, Seaman Stains, MasterBaits, The Good Ship Venus, And All Who Sail In 'er!!! And I always thought Rosie n' Jim were up to no good as well... Kind of thing that drew me to a life afloat in the firstplace! And trust me, it's a WONDERFUL life! And no PC group is EVER going to do anything other than make us laugh..! laughbeerdrink

Oh I don't know, there's not much difference between 'Give us all your money or we'll kill you' (Pirate) and 'Give us all your money because now is an ideal time to invest, and we'll beat the stockmarket, no really, we will' (Banker)...

I gather the Punch and Judy booth at the park is to be turned into a demilitarised zone rolleyes and hopscotch is to be banned for the under 15's - it will now be known as jumpalcoholfreebeverage because of the two references to alcohol in the original. Of course once your children are aged over 15 you can permit them to play a moderate number of games of hopscotch in your own home, and under your close supervision.
