Hastings Observer report on last year's Pirate Day


HASTINGS snatched the crown back as the town with the most pirates in one place.
Sea dogs, buccaneers and Jack Sparrow wannabees descended on Pelham beach  as part of a world record attempt, smashing the record held by Penzance.
A total of 14,231 pirates gathered on the beach, allowing Hastings to reclaim the title it previously held in August 2010.
At the end of the festivities, scores of people gathered to watch a display by the Red Arrows from 5.30pm.
