        Here’s a tale of the stormy deep where the king’s crown is shattered into pieces of six, and your quest and ours is to find them to fix.   

        A saga of bravery, love, cowardice and piratical cliches. 

        In short, will the scurvy-ridden running dogs have their day or the good and the brave and the beautiful win? 

        And it is not all “Shiver me Timbers” and “Avast Ye” and “Ahoys”. Crucial to the plot is a fine sample of sea shanties and songs of the rolling deep.  

        To complete the total experience a hearty piratical-themed meal is provided.
