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 picture of newly retired Gareth 'Alfie' Thomas.

Also a special picture of Thomas Domingo and wishing him all the best on a speedy recovery.

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

Along with Le Canard Enchaine,this is the only serious paper paper I buy and read

[quote="Mickado"]Mick, sure you might as well jump on the bus down to my place, I’ll be off on Friday so I can make us lunch and we can head to the RDS from there. [quote]

Don't forget the candles and roses!!

Micky Tikka I miss your face I hope your personal thing to sort out was only a BO problem or something like that...

Staggy - well done on your deeds. Need to make up for all those upsetting WUMs you've done

Micky good luck with the Chairmanship of the band. Is it for just one year or until they find some other mug to do it?

Remember NO band dates on the weekend of 20/21/22 April next year. Belfast date with the Hugmeister!

Rav, consider my calendar free for that one. I’d love to get up to Ravenhill again.

Chef, would Charlie Hebdo be sort of the French equivalent of Private Eye?

Mickado, sorted mate. Your name is top of the list. Along with Hughie and Micky T of course

All three of us on the same line eh Rav? Ever the diplomat!

We lost the last time I was there, I want revenge!

lucky,
Canard Enchaine would be closer to Private Eye.Charlie is flagrantly iconoclast, often more crude than subtile,politically very left of centre.

Picked up serious Karma points yesterday.

On way home from work gave a lift to a fella whose car ran out of petrol to a filling station and then dropped him back to his car. Was a bit aprehensive as he was a member of the travelling community but a nice fella all the same.

Then after my referee meeting I saw a guy passed out with his head under a parked car. No response from his after calling and shoving. So called an ambulance. Fella was drunk and took a bad fall hitting his head.

Also had a really really interesting referees meeting where George Clancy gave us a briefing about the RWC. Very interesting to hear it all.

Staggy, if you had the time and inclination, I'd be very interested in hearing more about that

G'day all, severely delayed getting into de Dam dis morning - major crap!

Thanks Folks.

its voted in on a yearly basis so if I do a good job or want to take it on for years to come that's fine.

initially its going in as a Co-Chair role just to make sure I have the capacity to take it on. but the biggest issue is managing a committee of about 10.

There is a split there and they need managing so to speak. Had are first meeting last night and I made 4 simple changes that they feel already will make a big difference.

Cari, I smell fantastic the majority of the time.. -Mickado - tell her

I know you do Micky...I've smelt you. What I meant was, I hope you didn't have any major issues to deal with.

Just watching Top 14. Biarritz look like Cannon Fodder in the HEC. They are in 14th place in the Top 14. Clermont look red hot.

Copycat

Woo a movember emoticon

fairly major Cari. but 1. too hard to explain 2. my own fault so had to get past it some how.

hopefully all good now though.

I appear to have buzz killed.

forgive me on that one

Awh Micky You know where I am (virtually) if I can help at all. Hope it's all working out now though.

Prop - that Movember emotion is a bit optimistic...didn't they have a bum fluff one?

Micky - no buzz kill, I was typing as you posted...

Try and avoid the 60thmin(0r thereabouts);very gruesome

Thanks for heads up Mick. Did you see the Perpignan player this weekend who knocked on over the line.

Didn't get to see the highlights this week;saw CO-RM92,ASM-BO,ST-SF in full on TV and SUA-MHRC in the flesh,but missed out on the games in Toulon and Bayonne.That would have given USAP a much needed victory.

It was hilariously funny knock on Mick - you really have to see it. I didn't see which player unfortunately.

I though Nyanga had a superb game in ST v SF

Yeah, and when Picamoles and the Dark Destroyer return, he'll be bench warming again.

I've just realised it's impossible for me to laugh quietly without starting to make piggy noises.

Kiiiiiiaaaahhhhhhh!

Spoiler:

what age are you and you are just realising that?

mine tend to burst out in little bits. it's a nightmare when at a wedding or a funeral..

I might get a Kindle. I was dead against them but I download some of my music, why not download some of my books too?

Micky - I think it's cause I've never been in a situation where I really really have to be quiet and starting laughing hysterically.

Lucky - why not? You'll just help to put every bookshop in the country out of business and show off in front of people on the train/bus?

After just two days, my Mov effort resembles this: Beard - not boasting like, just saying - I laugh in the face of &

So you've Grown A Grav Asbo? You must be like Oor Wullie from The Simpsons:

Not dissimilar, Cariadwr, just without the musical instruments which I left at home for the kids to play with

lucky - no one ever got mugged for their book

Afternoon all.

That's a very good point Afternoon by the way.

Afternoon, Hound. I'd only be reading it at home, really, so unless a burglar breaks in I won't get mugged for it.

Howya Cari. I thought it was Tuesday today. Overjoyed to discover it's nearly 3/5 of the working week done.

I have a Kindle;I only use it at home,in waiting rooms or on public transport(not too many muggers on FlyBe)The choice of books available over here is limited, so I'll load it up in December.I also bought 24 real books at a book sale last Sunday

Well that's it Chef. I'll still buy real books, just as I still buy most of my music on CD. I just fancy having a Kindle as well.

I’ve never actually used one but I believe the way the screen works is really cool, the lettering is actually raised as if it’s printed onto the screen so it does look a lot like an actual page. I personally don’t read that much but I like the idea of a kindle.

Lucky, speak to Kiwi. He's the kindle expert on here.

Anyway, I woke up last night to find the ghost of Gloria Gaynor standing at the foot of my bed.

At first I was afraid................................then I was petrified!

Rava, that's a lousy joke - but it made me smile!

The Grim Reaper came for me last night, and I beat him off with a vacuum cleaner....

Talk about Dyson with death!

That's brilliant.

That sucks! Boom boom!

Give (h)over.
