8. Yeah, been getting into a lot of pirate-core music recently. You probably haven’t heard of it.

9. “it’s a fancy dress party, what are you going as?”
   “I’m just going to wear whatever unconnected crap I can find in the attic”

11. This is clearly steampunks vs pirates.

13. The man in the orange coat is my uncle…… Haven’t seen him for around 8 years but it’s nice to see he’s still embracing the pirate life 😂

18. Oh so they’re allowed to carry firearms about but if i wheel my 18ft trebuchet down the high street with my gang of brethren all of a sudden the police are asking questions…

19. Omg I know someone who lives here whose Halloween fancy dress costume is a pirate. He’s not in this photo tho 😂

20. Looks like pirate punk

21. Depends on your definition of cool

22. Any other *Mechanism* fans?

    ‘Take Aurora in gently, Nastya, let’s see what these *Roses* can do!’

23. I went to the festival at Sherwood Forest (really not far from Newark) today where most people were dressed like they were mates with Robin Hood.

24. 17th century pirate re-enactors.
