Dear Auntie Blackrobe,

One day during a particularily fierce sea battle I stood to close to the marinara cannon and now I have a slightly perforated eardrum.
It doesn't affect my hearing very much but every few years my right ear gets clogged with wax which does affect my hearing.
Quite handy when i don't want to hear my cat wailing to get out to the crows nest for some crows in the morning but it feels awlful.
Can you recommend a safe solution to loosen it up?

Dear Brother Sister's Uncle

Wot ye be wantin' be a tin o Black Bart's Fish-Head Stew.

Wen you as got a old o this, by careful application using yer ship's funnel to the affected area, ye will obtayne a dramatic improovement. Be sure to av a bucket nearby.

Ere be a demonstration o this amazin remedy

Yours

The Black Spot had a novel solution to any swabs complaining about perforated eardrums. A quick slice of the cutlass and the ears were removed, e found that he didn't av to many complaints arter that.

Dave L's solution was to push one of is swabs up the cannon an used em as a silencer.

Black Bart used to provide extra rations of Fish Head Stew to his swabs.  After eating a few helpings of that disgusting muck having a perforated eardrum was the least of yer problems.
Today everything is different; there's no action, have to wait around like everyone else. Can't even get decent food, right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce and I got egg noodles and ketchup. I'm an average nobody, get to live the rest of my life like a schnook.

Dear Auntie Blackrobe,
 
   A fortnight ago me mates dragged me to boarding party.I regret it doubly! It was a lousy party and to top it all I got hit with grapeshot!

How do I get those awful grape stains off my favourite silk shirt?


 

DaveL

Dear Mr Grape,

Going to a boarding party these days ain't what it used to be. Not wif all those flashing disco balls, funny 'hug drug' tablets and pulsatin' music to contend wif. Last time Oi came across one one those poncy MC blokies wif a turntable, he wore the point of me cutlass...Yarrr!

If Oi wuz you, Oi'd limit your activities to a few murder and pillage excercises. They are far more rewardin'. That is unless you are on the receiving end.

There be nuthin werse than removin' grape stains from a puffy pirate shirt. Last toime Oi tried heavy grade sand paper and it wore a few big holes through it. So instead Oi did something far more sensible. Oi employed a 'home handy wench' called Molly to do me laundering. YArrrr!

YArrrr...that girl has more sense than 10 of us blokes put together. How do 10 pirates change a light bulb? Ask Molly to do it...YArrr!

Koind Regards,

DaveL (a bloke)

The Black Spot

Dear Grape Splattered

wear yer favourite puffy shirt durin' yer next cutlass fight. I finds that a pint or two o' the claret stuff covers up even the most stubborn stain.


The Black Spot

Dear auntie

How does I get blood stains out o' me best frilly shirt?

  The ships cat has caught all the rats on board two moons ago.Now the favoured parrot "Squawker", is missing.

Dear My Parrot is Missing,

Does your cat answer to 'Tiddles'. If so, O'id abandon ship immediately.

Dear Cap'n 'Throw the Blaggard Over the Side'

I has heard of this condition what be quite common with Seamen.  It be a side effect of consuming all that Fish Head Stew. After a voyage of more than four months the Seaman's diet should be supplemented by regular portions of fresh fruit. Otherwise all those fish hormones build up , causing temporary insanity and enlargement of the genitals. If the condition goes untreated it can result in the seaman developing gills and a blowhole in the top of his head!  At this point there be nothin for it but to get your Harpoon ready!

Yours sincerely
