    Tea towel=bandana. One time I substituted a hook with a whisk from the electric blender, the was more of a modern pirate.

    Just put a bedsheet over you and cut eyeholes, if anyone asks just say you're the ghost of a pirate.
    Don't forget your "yarr","harr","narr","matey" etc.

    Don't forget the bling! Pirates love their jewellery, the more the better and the tackier the better too!

    Roll your trousers up and try to smell like grog.

    Some minor pillaging also adds effect!!

    Tie a plunger to your knee then bend your leg to have an instant peg leg. A walking stick would be handy.

    Even better (or rather cornier) just attach some clothes pegs to your leg for a genuine "peg leg".

    Moved to F&A.

    Does F&A mean what i think it means, or is it just wishful thinking?

    Burn the end of a cork from a wine bottle and then rub it on your face for that stubble effect you can only get from being months at sea(or a cork).

    Some Blank CD's and badly printed CD inlays. Obviously you are a software pirate!

    me and my boyf dressed up as pirates on sunday night pic attached I did his make up myself (black eyeshadow, mascara and liner) and he got the costume on ebay but it would be easy to knock up your own one - get some brown and red material from a material shop and wear a white shirt he got the wig in a local fancy dress shop.
