It be a horrible side effect o' this campaign, mateys - after thousands o' leaflets, dozens o' emails, an' a few interviews in character, occasionally this pirate alter-ego o'mine be takin' over a little too much. I be findin' meself failin' t' conjugate verbs properly in more serious emails that I be writin'! Still, I not be able t'worry about that: wi' just three days 'til votin', the campaign be steppin' up. It be time t'leaflet th' council estates o' Pimlico, t'spend time wi' the tourists in Trafalgar Square, an' get ready fer the count.

Game on, me hearties. Game on.

(Oh - an' apparently I be leaflettin' Margaret Thatcher's house th' other day. Sadly, she weren't in at th' time.)
