A sharp-suited buccaneer!


More pirates, me hearties!

Here be Jon 'Scuttle' Richards, whose obsession with cartoon characters has seen him move on from impersonating Tintin to wandering about pretending to be Captain Pugwash. It is his generous apportionment to himself of pieces of eight garnered from his many wicked exploits on the high seas that allows him to sally forth to the bespoke tailors of Savile Row and purchase suits of fine silks and cambric, his sea-weathered skin being so sensitive.

He is also a regular visitor to men's perfumier's and pungent unguent manufacturers. To call him a dandy would be to make Beau Brummel feel an inadequate and horny-handed oaf of a landlubbing lummox.

I understand that 'Mr' Benjamin Thomas is taking on the role of the good Captain's Seaman Staines.
