Great news. According to the report in the Guardian the family hired a "specialist negotiating team" and a ransom was eventually paid. I never knew that there were people who specialize in pirate negotiations. I wonder how you get into that line of work?
By being brave, no doubt. Ex military maybe?
Are you kidding, Tillerman? For some, it's a dream job.
