The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

First topic message reminder :

Welcome to the virtual rugby pub - a place where you can come in for a sly beverage and discuss whatever's on your mind, or just eavesdrop on the regulars if you fancy a break from all the rugby chat.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the Tommy Bowe photo on the bar. That's a banning offence

So pull up a chair....what'll it be?

I wouldn't.

Shouldn't you be telling him to ?

Oh yeah, that's right Nottins.

Hughie, I'd cook it from frozen, let it cool, microwave it, let it cool and then microwave it again. Then it'll be fine.

Hmm, pretty much!

You got to defrost that shiz. Even if you do it in the microwave on a very low power setting, it should be fine.

Nah, Gibbo got lured into the loose-lose trap last night, only to claim a double bluff, darn it!

Evenin' All.

Had quite an unhappy day in Birmingham today. It was our last team meeting. It's a bit sad being with great people that you know youll never see again, but there we are.

Welcome back MrsP. Hope to see more of you.

Hi Cari, . There will be lots of new friends to make in the future.

Yeah I guess so Rav.

Anyway,

No Tommy or Wally for Saturday

but Ferg! and the return of Chilli!!

Cari - what Rava said


Cake update: well I've made it, it's not looking all that chocolaty and the icing is a fairly pale chocolate colour, so have noted that so next time I'm going to use some more cocoa. Just waiting for it to cool before I can taste it, yum

Dreamer, try using some of the dark plain chocolate next time.

...oh and Lukey Loverug's bum.

Cake sounds tasty Dreamer.

Protip; Dark Green and Blacks chocolate is amaaaaaazing for cooking

Aye aye Cari, alright? In honour of the brief flash of Mrs P, another on her mis-heard lyrics thread: in the George Michael song, I thought Anne Bancroft was saying "would you like me to introduce you, is that what you're trying to yell me". I kept thinking who does he want to meet?

argh cake disaster! put the top of it on and put he icing on it but it appears it is too heavy for the bottom layer, it's not looking very healthy at the moment

Rava & Notch - cheers for the tip, I shall try that next time

Fulham on tonight


So everyone set for the bash??

OBVIOUSLY not

well I hope those who are going are!

Just want to say I hope you all have a brilliant time, and safe journeys all

rugbydreamer wrote: it's not looking very healthy at the moment

Healthy ? Cakes ? Surely not. Anyway, who gives a sh!te what it looks like, TASTE, TASTE, TASTE. Whats it taste like

All the best for the bash! Happy Birthday/Penblwydd Hapus to the Chef and Terry. Gutted we can't make it

Waiting till Torchwood starts at 9 before I have a slice of it. Depending on how it tastes will make up my mind whether I take it into the office tomorrow or not, can't bring in sub standard cake!

Off to read for a bit now, blydi book is far, FAR too addictive....

Anybody want to see the chavs that frequent Wakefield on a Saturday night, watch Channel 4 at 22:00 tonight.

I'd rather push a kitten through an electric fan thanks. Quiet in here tonight. 10 minutes till Gods greatest creation 'The Barrowman' graces our screens. Personally I'm ecstatic.

Hi folks. Back in home town....long day.

Having a well earned pint and the two young (white) guys behind me are gabbling away in yoof speak... 'innit' and 'bruv' aplenty. One of them says "Yeah, and he can't even speak English innit". Just spat my beer across the table.

Best wishes to those heading to Chez Chef's this weekend. I hope everyone enjoys themselves and that the weather stays nice.

Bhugger Torchwood I'm watching Single Handed

For shame Cari.

Woop Torchwood, love it!

Also the cake is good, not my best but passable.

But is it edible? Perhaps you could give some to Hughie being as he can't cook his frozen chook.

Tis definitely edible! Although perhaps made too much icing to go with it, have eaten too much (just to make sure it was good ) tis a bit sickly after a bit.

Everyone can help themselves to a virtual slice

Mmmm. Edible? - tick. Passable? - I'll tell you in the morning.

Evening all, looks like I picked a good time to drop in, YUM!

And my laptop has decided to work tonight. So i'm catching up on about a year's worth of file backups ...

I wouldn't give anything to Hughie, apart from maybe an STD

Pete, don't forget your running stuff

Go fock yourself

Knew Ye were lurking, Ye lurker!!

Evening all

Very jealous of all those going to see the this weekend. Have a blast all of you, I'm sure you will.


Hope everyone has had a good day today, absolutely chucked it down here, was thinking of building a raft to get to work tomorrow.

Am pretty happy with the England selection for Saturday. One or two regular starters in there, a few who have been on the fringes and in the squad for a while, a couple of new faces in Tuilagi and Sharples and one in from the cold in Stevens. Enough player sin there with points to prove and shirts to earn to ensure that there is a real test match intensity about the performance. Well played Martin Johnson.

Pete - 5 'usual' starters in the starting XV plus a few 'rehabilitations'. It will be an interesting game in terms of squad strength.

I'm gonna have a double dose of England v Wales on Saturday. A pre-season friendly of Ealing v Corus Saints and then scoot over to the 'Sheaf for the Twickenham game.

All those heading for 's gaff, have a great weekend.

I fancy us to do quite well Hound, really interested to see how Care, Wilko, Flutey and Tuilagi go. Care finished last season well, and if he has a stormer could push Youngs all the way for the starting 9 berth.

I want to see that we have a good squad going into the RWC. There's a few untried combos, and we know that centre is not a strong point. Positive noises coming from Wales on their training camp.

Looking forward to this one.

Me too Hound. Gutted I have to work Saturday so will be recording it to watch when I get home.

Well phook it anyways. I missed Torchwood. Missed Eve, in leather, kickin orse. How did she look?



On a positive note, Gibbo the Younger got home from Norway with his GF this eve. Deepest Joy. Man, I love that boy - beyond Life & reason. But, if he doesnt make me an Opa soon, I phhokin will. She is gorgeous looking, vibrant, vivacious, intelligent and plans to sort out or start - World Conflicts as a living. Jeezuuzzzz. Condi Rice meets Charlize Theron. We just finished off a bottle of Norwegian Schnapps together. Talkin about everything and anything. If I was 20 years older and she was 20 years younger... Maybe... just maybe.. she'd have a chance.

Go Liamo! That's my boy.

Hound. He brought me back a dozen bottles of this kinda ting. As a man of distinction and class. An officiando of the finest and weirdest beers on Earth... What do ya reckon me Wasps darlin?

Its English, but the Norwegians LOVE it... its "Tempered over burning witches"... apparently. Ever tried it pal? Man Im soo pished. I blame his GF.

Hoi Pete. Love da very bones of ya.

Hey Gibbo

Sounds like you've had a good night man, good to hear that.

Now you leave yer boys girly alone I tell ya, you don't want her seeing you, realising it's a glimpse of the future and running for the hills

only kidding pal, love ya.

Make sure you say hello to de for me and have a few scoops for me this weekend.

Just joshin Pete mate.You know me by now man. Pure respect. That's how I can be as I am.



Besides that... she's highly-trained in the Martial Orts.

BTW, I'm not going to Chefs. Id LOVE to. But. Too many reasons why not to.

Xxxx to you and your girls.
