the pirate man!!! see him every morning coming out of the station, still curious as why he dresses this way, my theory is that perhaps he works in a pirate themed restaurant...or he's just a bit eccentric

[hpsaucey]

Think he works in SoupDragon - lovely chap!

[HonaloochieB]

You're talking about Aaaaarthur.

[Moos]

Ooh, saw him this morning in London Bridge. I like his style.

[sophiesofa]

Was he wearing the knee high boots this morning? He must boil in summer.

[Moos]

Sorry, I didn't see, but he did have the tricorne on, which I thought showed a fine disregard for weather-oriented dressing.

[jalapeno]

We thought he looked a bit odd when we first saw him on the lane to find him at Soup Dragon later on - very nice man. Maybe he should have a weekly change of outfit to keep attracting the customers, a fairy perhaps..?!

Did anyone see a man with a bird (the winged variety) on his shoulder walking down LLL Sunday before last father's day)?

Yes! I saw him only yesterday. It looked like a big cockatoo.

I saw the fella with the parrot on his shoulder on Lordship Lane twice last week.

And of course, all this following the peculiar sight of rolled-up trouser legs (or rolled-down shorts, depending upon one's orientation)!

[legalbeagle]

They were defo rolled up trouser legs. For sure. And I'm pretty sure that was a parrot on that bloke's shoulder, I saw him on Saturday or it could have been Sunday. Having spent the weekend with estate agents on Lordship Lane I'm afraid the days have rather blurred together..........

[jalapeno]

Aha, so it's a Cockatoo and a very well trained one at that. I have seen men with stranger birds parading up and down Lordship Lane!

[Moos]

rolled-up trousers, birds on the shoulder and tricorne hats - this place is a hotbed of piratical activity!

*swashes buckle*

I really think you're onto something here moos. Who knows, next thing, we'll be seeing The Sea Cow change its name to 'The Sea Dog', The Ukelele Club to The Hornpipe Club, the The Black Cherry to The Black Spot....

arrr.... shiver-me-timber-decking.

YO HO HO and a bottle of Prosseco

[legalbeagle]

That's my bouy! (get it? get it?)

[dubluke]

Captain Blackbeard walks in to a tavern and orders ?Ahoy, me hearty, gimme a tankard o? yer best rum. AAAAArghhh!?

The barman places the tankard on the counter and replies, ?Cap?n Blackbeard, Good to see ye again. But where?s yer buccaneers??

?Aaaarggh,? says Blackbeard? Under me buccan hat!!?
