DAY 2 THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES !!!!!!

Captain Pete’s log, in the year of our lord 3rd May 2009.

After a hearty breakfast, the crew boarded the Greyhound once more and continued their journey to the Island of Worthing. On arrival they joined the mass gathering of Pirate crews from around the country. We secured the vessel and set up camp under the palm trees where the battle lines were drawn. First mate Keith and Commander Kim then went to parlay to find our first challengers. The crew was split into two raiding parties, with First mate Keith leading the one and Commander Kim the other. Two of our crew jumped ship and joined the good ship Wimbourne to commence battle with the older age bracket. They being Pirate Peaches and Pirate Zoe.

The order of battle was set and the order was given….. "Let the Battle Commence"

Commander Kim’s crew was soon called into battle against Folkestone. The crew soon emerged victorious without sustaining any injuries. Having broken free, Pirate Dude could not make the try line, falling just short due to a navigation error.
First mate Keith’s crew followed into battle shortly after, and were repelled by Paviours sustaining casualties who were treated by Asbo Aide’s miracle cure.
Commander Kim’s crew headed back in to battle against Wimborne and Elingham, and after a hard battle emerged victorious but with casualties, again with Asbo Aide coming to the rescue with his moto "we can rebuild them".
First mate Keith’s crew were quickly back into battle against the Welsh Pirates of Cardiff sadly being repelled once again, but without any injuries.
Commander Kim’s crew, now facing an unknown enemy, were defeated and acquired a few injuries and found themselves relying again on Asbo Aide
First mate Keiths crew were into battle again against South Sussex Pirates and after a long hard battle emerged victorious, coming away with the booty.
Pirates Peaches and Zoe having had a successful day, repelling all boarders returned to the Greyhound, as undefeated Champions of Island Worthing.

The crew now weary and tired from battle, returned to the Greyhound with their booty, and returned to the Island of Tourtuga. On returning, Navigator Nic and Second mate Trish (having returned early) had food ready for the incoming crews.
Asbo Aide then continued to administer his lotions and potions to the still injured crewmates who soon recovered.

After feasting the crews planned for a wedding. Vicar Monkey called everyone to their seats as the brides approached. Seaman Simon and Seaman Ian walked the Pirate brides, Zoey and Zeta, down the isle. After a bootiful fireside service the couple walked back down the isle and the party commenced.

Later that evening First mate Keith gathered some of the crew for a quiz. With the rivalry between the young and old pirates increasing as quiz developed. The young pirates emerged victorious with a few youngsters showing the oldies up. Shortly after everyone returned to their quarters with some partying throughout the night.
