Adventures in Piracy


This must qualify as the silly news of the week. Apparently huge celebrations are being held in a small town in Somalia after the release of a Spanish vessel yesterday (sorry only in Spanish). Pirates are back in town with a bounty of 2 million euros and salesmen are trying to sell them everything from 4 x 4 vehicles to authentic DVDs. Pirates in boats, pirate parties, pirates of the Caribbean, pirate politicians. Are we back in the pirate era or maybe it never left?.
