"Why are pirates called pirates?"

"Because they Arrrr"

Decided to get some interesting facts for you regarding Pirates - because i saw a certain summer blockbuster last night... and also because I've been told off for not updating my blog enough.

So shiver my timbers here's some stuff about pirates.

FACT: Pirates did not even say Arrgh

FACT: Early Pirates were actually paid by the Birtish government who didnt want to establish a navy in the colonies

Some of the worlds most famous pirates include Henry Morgan, Prince of Pirates Samuel Bellamy and most successful of all Black Bartholomew (The Dread Pirate Roberts)


Finally...

Possibly the world's most annoying song, about Pirates. Courtesy of popular Children's TV show LazyTown
