Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum.....!


Fifteen men on a dead man's chest—
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest—
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!
The skull & crossbones spotted flying in the breeze at Hillarys Boat Harbour yesterday afternoon.. I had to smile when I downloaded the shots to see that the flag flying closely behind ye old pirate flag was 'The Bourbon' .. that would be the rum content of the ditty n'est pas, don't you just love when that happens :) Hope your week has started well, take care.....

    I've got a flag like that... and a bandanna like that.
