Talk Like a Pirate Day

I've just realised that today is Talk Like a Pirate Day but it seems to have slipped under the radar somewhat.
Not that I'm available this evening (and of course we have R15 coming up on Saturday), but what "Cannon Street Run" would we have been up to this year?

Shall we do it next week instead? Pure self-interest as I'll be in London.

What day do you have in mind?
last time we started this at 1745 due to the length of the challenge

Thursday would be best, but could juggle work finish time to do Tuesday or Wednesday if that works for more people.

I have a cold at the moment (hopefully not picked up during the R15!) but if I've shaken it off by Thursday evening, I'll be there.

Ye tides be favourable - so if unable to weigh anchor at 17:45 ye can depart from Cannon Street port at a later time

**** STORM ALERT ****
The waters look far to choppy to sail tonight and Bosun Richard is not feeling to well so I propose that we do NOT set sail this evening
We can possibly look at sailing at a later today, but those seven seas are even to rough for the hardy Cap'n Kev tonight

Damn and blast! Just heard that the Northern line has big trees all over the tracks, so I've headed back to calmer waters.
Shame not to see you guys but hopefully will make it for an R15 this season.
