Default Yarrrrrrrr - It be Talk Like a Pirate Day 2007 today!

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!


RADIO APPEARANCES

If ye be wantin' t'hear the Cap'n, then I be on Talk 107 in Edinburgh at 7:30, Gemini FM in Devon at 8:10, Gold Radio around the country at 8:20, BBC Lincolnshire at 10:20, an' I be on Mansfield 103.2, BBC Kent, Gemini in Torbay, an' twenty other stations via Sky News Radio at various points in th'day. 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! (Yon breakfast shows be rather 'appy to do such.) They can be contactin' me at capntom@yarr.org.uk - or, just call 'em up an go 'arrr' at them!


CHARITY SINGLE

Arr, if ye not be gettin' a copy o'the charity single afore the day is out, I be keelhaulin' ye, matey! We be raisin' money fer Marie Curie Cancer Care - an' wi one big heave-ho, we can be plunderin' the charts come Sunday! So please, me hearties, grab yerself a copy an' tell yer friends - it be only 79p, which be less than the price o'a mug o'grog, an' they be takin' cards an' PayPal!

www.yarr.org.uk/single t'watch the video www.indiestore.com/pirateday t'grab it (it also be on iTunes an' other download shops an'all, but we be preferrin' Indiestore)

If ye be havin' an account on Digg, Reddit, or any o' yer social news sites, fer cryin' out loud submit it there an' 'elp us t'be plunderin' their charts an' all!
