Arr, ahoy me hearty! It be Talk Like A Pirate Day -- an' that mean it be time fer swashbucklin', pluderin', an' talkin' like the buccaneer that ye be!

In this email: th' charity single be available, an' there be more'n a dozen PIRATE PARTIES around th'country - why not head t'one o'em? Pirate Day be all about mystery an' adventure, after all - take a bit o'a chance an' have some fun!

Tune in an' let me know 'ow it sounds!

If ye know o' any local radio station, email or call 'em an' tell 'em it be Pirate Day! Their phone an' email be on their web site, mos' likely, an' the more messages they be gettin', the more likely that ye be hearin' 'em talk like pirates later!
