We have a pirate´s day when François LeClerc (known as Pata de Palo or wooden leg) attacked and took over my island and then asked for a ransom, so now they celebrate the pirate´s day too LOL, but then each five years they make this additional "virtual" battle between the ship and castle.:)
Sounds cool :) I don't now much about him besides him being a privateer from Normandy. I will investigate him some more, who knows, maybe I end up writing about him one day :)
