INT. DAY. TAVERN.

TWO PIRATES ARE HAVING A DRINK WHILST ON SHORE LEAVE.

PIRATE 1: Arr, yer drinkin' that rum like there's no tomorrow.

PIRATE 2: Arr as well, only problem is I'm running low on the ole doubloons.

PIRATE 1: Have I ever let you down, me 'earty, especially where booze is concerned. This will warm the cockles of yer 'eart.

PIRATE 1 BRINGS OUT AN OLD BURIED TREASURE MAP AND POINTS TO AN X MARKED ON IT.

PIRATE 2: Yer full of surprises ya ole sea dog.

CUT TO EXT. THE PIRATES ARE USING METAL DETECTORS ON A CROWDED NUDIST BEACH.
(SFX BLEEP, BLEEP).

NAKED MAN: Watch out, that's my Prince Albert.

PIRATE 1: Oops, shiver me timbers. And talking about wood...

CAMERA PANS TO REVEAL PIRATE 2 HOLDING METAL DETECTOR BUT BASE OF IT IS NOW POINTING TOWARDS THE SKY.

PIRATE 2: (looking at nude woman) I think I've found the chest.

ENDS.

I dont get it. Is it ye olde style pirates on a modern nudist beach or new age pirates? I'm not convinced on the punchline either. Sorry.

Its defo ye olde style pirates on a modern nudist beach alright. Using the metal detector of course as an extension of his penis after he sees a pair of tits and thinks its the treasure chest he was looking for, chest, geddit. But they were a bit drunk those pirates. But you weren't to know that. Cheers anyway Gavin Pirate
