Get down, Tiddles, it is only a photo, not a real cat......Igor, have we any news on the whereabouts of that mangy cur who nicked the treasure? Just a minute, Seagull Express have just pulled up alongside.....Ahoy there, me hearty! What news from BigMumma?
Stop press.....Scroggins ship sited five miles nor nor west by south.....appears to be becalmed....something about a curse on the treasure causing bad luck to him what nicks it ........Will meet you all there to give him a bashing...love BigM....
Hear that, gang? We're going to have a good old pirate sea battle! After that bounder Scroggins. Ah-harrr!One life - your life - live it!0 -
What great news NargleHow exciting!The treasure could still be within our grasp!
A battle with swords flashing and cannons booming,swashbucklers buckling their swash like nobody's business.....come on now!
Cheffie is already ready I see in his best pirate costume of chef's whites and his trusty AK17,and as calm as an angry lobster.
Igor,go and check the cannon ball situation.
Knit Witch go and check the cannon situation.What do you mean,the voles have nested in the cannons?Get them out,now!
Hubert,you're on lookout - get up that pole!What's that?You couldn't get your spanx on over your dainty ankles this morning?Never mind...nobody's looking....
I shall quickly check that we have ample supplies of rum in case anyone goes into shock.....

Boarding party on standby......No, Hubert, you can't go in front. The sight of you in your stilettos mincing on board the good ship Black Nobbler will make Scroggins collapse - with hysterical laughter! We need someone formidable- frightening- menacing-
Mrs Doyle! Get to the front of the line and offer Scroggins and his crew a cup of tea....And don't take no for an answer!
Stand by for fireworks, crew!One life - your life - live it!0 -

That's it, Chef, blast the sails to bits with your AK wotsit, Scroggins is busy trying to stop the ringing in his ears from Mrs Doyle's "Go on, go on"s.
Go on, Igor, buckle your swash! The treasure is on this ship somewhere.....let' s find it before the ship sinks......One life - your life - live it!0 -
We shall force Scroggins and his motley crew of villains to show us where be the treasure by making 'em walk the plank!
Ah yes they'll soon be laughing on the other side of their faces!Hubert and Tibbles,guard them with your life,whilst we search the ship.0 -

What in the name of Davy Jones's locker went wrong? Hubert, you and Tiddles were supposed to be guarding Scroggins and his crew!
Instead, I am reliably informed that Scroggins nicked some of Knitwitch's wool and got you playing games with Tiddles, whilst he and said crew spiked our rum with Valium! Whilst we were snoozing away he and his crew carried us all back to our own ship then set sail at a rate of knots - still with the treasure!
I tell you, the captain is not going to like this, especially as it took months for her to collect that stash of Valium!
And the voles - I am certain, in my drug-induced haze, I saw them helping Scroggins and his crew keep Tiddles busy......I vote we have a pirate court martial, followed by a keel hauling......One life - your life - live it!0 -

Blistering barnacles....Scroggins and his crew will be shark sandwiches with a manky mango relish when I get my hands on them!!!!
My valium stash... depleted....cold turkey,no,no,no.
'Hubert and Tiddles are given a sound talking to from Cheffie and Nargle.Tiddles takes exception to this and chases them up the flagpole,just in time for a change of shift....stay calm Cheffie,Igor has breakfast under control'.0
