The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub
by Kiwireddevil on Mon 26 Sep 2011, 2:24 am

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 collage of great current props' pictures on the bar. We've got Castrogiovanni, Hika Reid, The Beast, Colin Windon, the Franks brothers, Mas, Tonga'uiha, Roncero, Cian Healey (as demanded by Hughie), Stevens, Murray, Mike Ross, Adam Jones and Steenkamp all in action. Graffiti's a banning offence

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

Ale

I don't think I want to meet Gibbo after hearing that.

by MBTGOG Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:33

T,

Did you get the new FIFA yet?

by MrsP Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:34

Now,

School pack lunches!

steam

That has got to be my least favourite job of all!!

Coming near the end of term the kids are counting the days till holidays and I am counting how many more pack lunches I have to make!!!!

But, since MrP isn't from the "Gibbo" school of husbandry, I'd better go and make them myself!

Only messing, I love MrP, even if he doesn't iron or cook or make the pack lunches.

Very Happy

by Thomond Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:35

Nah,I asked a question about the commentators a while back. What's the deal exactly?

Might get it over in England if it's cheaper.

MrsP,get them to make their own sandwiches! At least the elder lemmings anyway!

Id love to have a pint with you Sir. One of Irish football's saviours.

by MBTGOG Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:39

T,

They have Martin Tyler and Alan Smith for some games then Clive Tyldesly and Andy Townsend for others.

by MrsP Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:39

They'd probably make themselves crisp and Smartie sarnies Thomond or I would be tempted to leave them to it alright!

I hope its ok to say this. Because MrsG said it. He is your Rock. Without him, you... He's beautiful. A real man

How do I know that? See me with MrsG.

Cant stand her.
XX to MrsP & MrsG.

by MrsP Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:46

MrsG is spot on Gibbo!

by Gibson Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:53

She tends to be MrsP. Annoying as it is sometimes. She is my Rock. And I'm hers.

Ok lets talk about virtual games. The kids are getting concerned. guinness

by Thomond Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:55

One of the best songs from one of the best albums ever.

Gibbo,this is going to sound weird but the song title is apt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDR_ldGke6A&ob=av2n

by WillyGilly Mon 03 Oct 2011, 21:58

Isn't about time you older folk took you teeth out and went to bed?

by Gibson Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:14

Willy,
Yeash, ish true.

Time for the younger generation to take over and lay it down. New teeth. A New Truth. Or tooth.

But, where de feic are they?

Away playing for Pres, Queen and Country I say. zen

by WillyGilly Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:19

To be honest I'm a traditionalist, I fear for the day when my generation takes over. I'm afraid we'll make a right man sausage up of it. Moreso than it is already if possible.

by Guest Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:22

So do I Willy, so do I.

by **Kenny** Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:24

Evening Everybody , got room for another oldie ?

by Guest Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:27

Aye Kenny wrth gwrs (of course) guinness

by Gibson Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:27

Willy,
Ye have a clean-slate man. No one has phhoked it up more than us lot - over millennia. We invented teenagers and consumerism.

Believe... nothing. Question everything. Thats a good start.

by **Kenny** Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:29

Cheers

, need to chill out abit

by **Ozzy3213** Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:29

Not sure if I fall into the oldie or young 'un category in here. If it makes a difference, I cook, clean, iron and do the pack lunches, but then so does the wife, well except for the ironing.

I can't sew for shoite though.

by Hound_of_Harrow Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:32

Hi all. Just in from a nice evening.

Congrats on landing the job cari Hug

I hope you enjoy it.

As I have no one to wum with in terms of England's next game, I'm thinking of setting up a lunchtime discussion with some of my French work colleagues to discuss which one of us deserves to lose our q/f more.

Think they'll go for it?

by Guest Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:37

ha maybe Hound, I say go for it Wink

and I have just hit a sleepy brick wall so shall leave you with this thought.

George Osborne is the Child Catcher.

by Gibson Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:41

Hound,
Thats brilliant thinking man. Ask a Frog to diss himself, his country and everything he stands for? They love dissing themselves... made a whole movie-industry out of it. The best IMO. But against the Rosbeefs?

You Genius. Ale

T,
She will meet you. She will make the choice.You just have to concur, after your jaw has dropped. You'll be dead in the water man. And its so grand. zen

Just ask me Pool mate Kenny. He knows. guinness

by Hound_of_Harrow Mon 03 Oct 2011, 22:55

I might chuck an inflamatory Kiwi into the mix too (as the French will be there devil

) - we have one or two in the building.

Might need more than the regulation half hour lunch for this one...

Whistle

by Gibson Mon 03 Oct 2011, 23:00

WUM Tartine! Laugh

by Hound_of_Harrow Mon 03 Oct 2011, 23:11

I'm gonna park this idea until I get to work tomorrow. Wink

. Then I'll start baiting the hook.

Nos wotsits peeps.

by **Kenny** Tue 04 Oct 2011, 01:20

I will bid you all a fond farewell , if i dont see you all for awhile take care guinness

by Glas a du Tue 04 Oct 2011, 05:59

The only housework I do is cooking if Mrs G is home later than me.

Is anybody else concerned that this qf will take too much out of the winner, giving the French an easy ride to the final?

by Glas a du Tue 04 Oct 2011, 08:04

Anyway

Hi-de-hi, campers.

by Glas a du Tue 04 Oct 2011, 08:24

Ho-di-ho

by Luckless Pedestrian Tue 04 Oct 2011, 08:27

Ruth Madoc smells of haddock.

by Cari Tue 04 Oct 2011, 08:28

Gooood morning, good morning! We've danced the whole night through, good morning, good morning to you! music

Just had great pleasure in telling my (soon to be old) boss that no, I won't be travelling to London to go to a meeting cause it won't be necessary Very Happy

I have far more important things going on here. Like making the most of this gaff during the day. Once I move, you won't be seeing me in the daytime....not that you'll miss much anyhoo king

How long have you got left before the new job, Cari?

by Cari Tue 04 Oct 2011, 08:55

I'm not sure Lucky. They have to do certain checks first which will probably take a few weeks. I'm hoping I'll get a start date of the beginning of November.

by Luckless Pedestrian Tue 04 Oct 2011, 08:58

Not too long to wait then, Cari. I bet you're excited, I know I would be! Very Happy

One for the wall:

by Cari Tue 04 Oct 2011, 09:01

Yeah, it's a good feeling. I'll miss a few people here, but there's lots more new ones to meet too. Smile

By the way are you listening to Radio 2? I've had to turn it off until 9:30. I can't stand Miranda Hart and the bloke she's with. They're awful! Bring back Richard Madeley!

by Luckless Pedestrian Tue 04 Oct 2011, 09:10

Ha, they're not great but I don't like Richard Madeley either. What station will you be listening to until Ken Bruce comes on?

by Cari Tue 04 Oct 2011, 09:34

I've been listening to music on my phone. I don't mind RM, he's quite soothing, doesn't chat too much. He's not got the best voice for radio, but he's not so loud and talking over everything all the time.

by Glas a du Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:11

Question

Is this the first World Cup that the 'Celtic' nations' players have played as they would for the Lions?

by Luckless Pedestrian Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:24

Glas, I don't know about that. I certainly can't remember a World Cup where Ireland and Wales have played better than they have so far.

Am I the only person who doesn't really care about Amanda Knox?

by Cari Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:25

Sorry Hughie...couldn't resist Wink

by Glas a du Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:27

no

by Cari Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:29

No Lucky. Fed up of hearing about her myself. My thoughts would only be with the Kercher family if I have to think about it at all.

by WillyGilly Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:34

Just watched Boris Johnson's speech at the tory party conference. Brilliant stuff. He's effectively stood up and done 30 mins of material. Excellent.

by Glas a du Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:36

He'll be one of those best Prime Ministers we never had like Bevan and Smith.

by WillyGilly Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:43

The Knox thing is absolutely appalling. Dozens of parties in Seattle last night apparently, just goes to show what a what a bunch of jackasses the yanks are.

by PenfroPete Tue 04 Oct 2011, 10:44

having a great time. It's going to be a great weekend regardless
