Don't forget the Buccaneer....pirates are always classier with an English accent.
Ask Errol Flynn.

Thanks for clearing that up. The pyramid on your money obviously makes you ancient Egyptian, then. :lol:

As a matter of fact, rather than international ignorance, dear Errol would've had a British (not 'English') passport, and I presume a US one after be became a natralised US citizen.

Regards, Sorry - "Belay there!"

Except strangely, the Buccaneer was known as the Bermuda to the Brits... 8)

That's not a Buccaneer, this is a Buccaneer...

It does, doesn't it? Also Blackburn win one of the daft aircraft name awards (a long list) with the (I kid you not) Blackburn Blackburn. :shock:

It's also ugly enough to look like a pirate ship, with rigging, a blunt bow, an open wheelhouse, fo'c'sle, portholes (for cannon, of course)...
