    T Acrostic

    "timbers shivered!" me matey called... "aaaarrrrgggghhhh !"
    illustrious fracturer of the King's English was he with
    tattered tricorn and disheveled raiment, a slovenly sight to see
    "avast ye! ye bilge-sucking heathen and heave hard to starboard !"
    nary a second was wasted by the helmsman, we spun like a top
    insomuch that before the treasure galleon knew it we were abreast her
    "canons away! canons away! canons awayyyyy !!!!!!!"

    Have just been banned again

    Someone didn't like my attempt. Tomorrow more.
