Sorry about all the neglect round here. I've been busy looking for the Meaning of Life which I had hoped might be revealed through the medium of a new job. The grave-digging thing didn't work out, mainly because I had to wear a frightful yellow helmet while operating the digger. I am now hoping to find a more stylish sort of Meaning.
I'm quite keen on getting a pirate-ey lifestyle, I like the swag and the swaggering, very fond of the rum and above all I love the hats. I've been doing a bit of research into the subject, here is one of my interviews.

ReplyDeleteI loved the way he said: Well.... pants.

My nephew hates having to state the bloomin' obvious to twitty aunties. The cowboy lifestyle also involves wearing knickers on your head.
ReplyDeleteHello Lulu:
ReplyDeleteLong time no see!! So sorry that the grave digging died on you but why not take up the idea offered by the pirate interview, rent a boat and position yourself off the coast of Somalia for rich pickings from American cruise ships?
I can confirm this! All the jaunty pirates at the local Renaissance Faire also wear their underwear on their heads!
ReplyDelete"Well...pants"
ReplyDeleteLove it!
(looking forward to seeing you soon!)
Pirates and rum...?
ReplyDeleteWe'll be seeing you off the shores of Costa Rica then...flying the Jolly Pants.
You've left me pantsing for more.

ReplyDeleteHi Hatts - lovely to see you too. Glad you think pirating has a future.
ReplyDeleteLX - I knew you'd be an authority on authentic attire.

Louciao. haha

Nursey, Does one wear anything else at the Gimcrack though?
ReplyDeleteI can see why the hats appeal to you, I o like a dual purpose garment. Nice to see you back. X
ReplyDeleteI made a hat out of pants, and *I* got arrested. BUT I AM A PROPER PIRATE! I screamed, which only seemed to make the situation worse.
ReplyDeletewhoa, whoa, whoa...didn't i leave a comment here 3 weeks ago, sugar? *thinking* ok, maybe it was only in my head, but anyway...how the hell are ya? xoxoxoxox
ReplyDeleteKnudsen started out in his working life as a grave digger in Fresno. It all ended when the police found a few bones under my bed. Necrophilia seems to be a dying passion these days.
ReplyDeleteHi Eryl, a pant/hat - what could be more useful?
ReplyDeleteRed - Did you try and get the officer to walk the plank?
Sav, Most of me is fine sweetheart xxx
OBB, Are you sure it's all ended or are you just throwing out a deocy bone out so you can continue undetected? I suspect necrophilia is alive and well in some quarters
