Quotes

Slater: Remember the days Del, all us lads down at the river playing Pirates? Trigger was Long John Silver, Boycie was the shipmate...what character did I play, Del?

Del: You played the bloke that walked the plank.

Slater: Yeah that's right, I was always the bloke that walked the plank. I was in and out of that water more times than a duck's head! I always wanted to be Blue Beard!

Slater: I did, but you'd never let me!

Del: I did...once.

Slater: Oh yeah, I remember that was the day that Blue Beard had to walk the plank, wasn't it.
