I’ve been known to get a little wild, especially when presented with a pineapple. You see, there is something about the acid in fruit. One summer, in band camp…

ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!
This is an emergency interruption of your regular blog.
Invaders have been seen on the streets of Tortuga!
All residents are to be on alert for strangers in wool outfits from another era, dark colors, very pale skin. They will smell of grease, oil and strange metals. Most often wearing goggles.
DO NOT APPROACH! These are the forerunners of an invasive force. If you suspect you’ve spotted an invader from Novan, send word to vampire King Keitran or Michael March, of the Cursed Quill.
The pirate paradise of Tortuga needs you to be alert! So, put that glass of rum down, sharpen your blade and man the crows nest!
Prepare to fight for freedom. Bring your pistols, cutlass, blunderpuss, cannon, sword, slingshot, staff, claymore…uh…large club…and all to the harbor!
This has been an emergency interruption of your regular blog. Thank you!

Darn it, I'm running in the other direction. I forgot to sharpen my cutless and I know for a fact the parrot needs feeding. I'll be back as soon as I've - er - done the ironing.
Congrats, Maureen. Sounds a right romp as we'd say in the UK!!
