      The Virginia Reel seems a bit tame for pirates! Me thinks there must have been a bawdy version around.

        More accurate would have been a hornpipe jig according to impeccable internet pirate resources. But hard to do in aforementioned flip flops!

        Tame? With a lubber’s head almost taken off, battered and broken limbs akimbo… she be a fierce one, I ken Virginia Reel…
