Calling all pirate treasure seekers of South Coast New MINI club.

I, the 'Huntmaster', invite you to a treasure adventure hunt on Saturday 26th April 2008 to celebrate fellow pirate Jo's Birthday.

Using the legends of lost treasure you, the adventurer pirate, will set out on a daring expedition to strike it rich, following a weathered pirate map, looking for clues and solving riddles along the way.

Fun riddles, conundrums and trivia must be found, and solved in order to complete your journey and capture the treasure.

The details:
11:15 - Meet at Ringwood longstay car park, ready to leave at 11:30 for a short run
12:30 - Lunch at a nearby pub
14:00 - The Treasure Adventure Hunt briefing and the expedition starts
16:00 - All cars to be back at 'secret location' for winners presentation, near Ringwood

There are some rules:
a) Safety: All cars that enter must have at least two pirates (driver +1) for safe map reading
b) Dress code: Pirate attire is required, the extent of the outfit is up to you. Eye-patches cannot be worn whilst driving.
c) MINI's can be suitably dressed and teams can have a team name.
d) Radios will be necessary for the morning run

How to enter:
There will be an entry fee of £5 per car to cover the cost of materials for the treasure hunt and prizes. The more entrants the greater the prizes. I assure you that all of the entry money will be used for sensible materials and prizes.
1) Reply to the thread with your name and the name of your co-pirate (and team name if you want one)
2) I will then contact you to arrange collection of the entry fee
3) Start shopping for your pirate clothing, hooks, eye patches, wigs and more

List of people attending:

1. Captain John Cash (cooper_sport) & Paul in his ship 'Oceans Blade' PAID
2. Captain Davey Kidd (Dave) & ......tbc....... possibly swimming if he has no ship! PAID
3. Bloody Matt Rackem (T15Matt) and Lucy Rosa in The Red Vengeance PAID
4. Dirty Jo Rackam (Joanne) & Dirty Tom Bonney (CoopersTom) in the 'Blue Pearl' PAID
5. Red Mary Kidd (SharonH) & her crew of 1 or 2
6. Ethel Kidd (Mrs Messey) & Bloody Davey Kidd in the Rosey Red Clipper PAID
8. El Capitano Manuel (Lorimor_Black) & Jose
8. Keith for the run and lunch only

Ahoy huntmaster.

Captain John Cash is up for any adventure when treasury is involved. I will have to speak to me crew and find a reliable seaman who I can trust to not double cross me and take all the treasury for themself.

I will get the crew to work on the 'Ocean's Blade' right away to get her all ship shape for the voyage ahead.

FYI - got my pirate name from the following web site.  http://www.piratequiz.com/

Just answer a few questions and it gives you a name with a statement about it.

I got Captain John Cash
Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. You're musical, and you've got a certain style if not flair. You'll do just fine. Arr!

Well after your great introduction to the thread I thought I would get into character and carry it on.

Got to try and convince my brother to dress up even if it isn't much. If you want to get more people interested in attending we could try posting it up on MINI2 and also see about getting it listed in MM mag for upcoming events.

It is great to see people getting into character, it's really nice.

If we see how the interest goes on here first or it could get very difficult to manage the actual treasure hunt with larger numbers. A good suggestion John.

Good luck persuading your brother!

I'll see if I'm not working...

And if I am lucky enough to be working at Lymington, I might see if I can pop up there....

But I might have to swing something good to do that!

Arrr First Mate Ratty you best be careful with the tights comment or you will be made to walk the plank!

I will need to know the name of your co-pirate/pirates as well.

Count Dirty Tom Bonney in. Sounds so wrong but thats what that pirate website recommended!
Apparently I'm: the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean -- not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

See you all there me hearties! Arr!
