Pirate night out

It's always fun when you go all out on something. When my friends and I decided to go and watch Pirates of the Carribean3, we decided to go all out, we would dress up as pirates, we would shout pirate things, and we would smuggle run into the cinema. The result? One of the best nights out I've had in a while (even though I got to bed at 8am and woke at 4, still with a hangover). On Wednesday we went pirate shopping at Camden to buy appropriate pirate gear. I ended up wearing a three-corner hat with a sash wrapped around it, a shawl with skeletons on them over a white shirt, black pants made of various types of material, pirate boots, and a whole bunch of belts and sashes. Oh yes, and serious jewellery. Oh yes, and a toy sword and a waterskin (rumskin more like ;) I was Captain (my real name is Morgane so it couldn't be otherwise). 

waset was cabin boy. Joey was first mate, and his boyfriend Ben was our figurehead (he'd bought a plastic deer-head and was wearing it over his own for reasons incomprehesible, he was the freakiest of all of us).

Before going out we'd bought a bottle of rum from the best shop ever. We call it the 'Kingdom of Drink' and it has every kind of alcohol imaginable. We went in, and asked for some 'proper pirate rum', the guy barely had to think, and gave us some Carribean spiced rum (dark, of course). Some of the nicest rum we ever drank. Everyone had flasks and waterskins to smuggle the stuff into the cinema, and we sat happily in the third row, getting completely plastered and waving our various swords and pistols at the screen (it was a midnight showing and there weren't many people to get annoyed at our antics)

The film was.... well, bear in mind that I see the last two 'Pirates' films as fanfiction of the original, so whatever they do to the characters or plot doesn't really impact on my version of canon. That said, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
