Caitrin, it's agin the law of the sea (which reaches back way further into antiquity than Christianity)for anyone to hit a Barmaid or Barman (even when they screw up your drinks)if there are sailors present. It offends the laws of nature and mankind to do such a dastardly thing. When the issue is raised at the post mortem for the offenders; I have seen many judges put death by natural causes when, they hear sailors witnesed it. If it occurs here, I shall give the world a lesson in why the cutlass should be registered. The Laws state that any such miscreant for a first offence shall have various parts of their anatomy fastened to the anchor cable with piano wires, and anchors let go at dawn. A second offence and ye just don't want to hear what I has to do to them. (But I would make Ghengis Khan look like a Liberal)Aaaargh, mates, sounds of sharpening steel. Yours, (former bouncer)Aye.
