Swarthy Mates


Piracy is a very attractive lifestyle, it seems. We were hoping that the children would be drawn to medicine, law, engineering or some other law-abiding and constructive field....but no, it appears that they have salt-water in their veins and have become entranced by the siren call of get-rich-quick schemes upon the high-seas. Even poor Jane was swept up in the excitement. She was promised a chance to see the world and all the treasure she could put in her mouth.....yet all she ended up with was a hanky with the initial 'R' on her head and a plastic sword.
