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 pictures of Rhys Priestland, Cian Healy, or the special one of Charlize Theron and Gibbo above the bar!


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

Best house I shared was one of those 4 storeys + attic with about 14 people in Chiswick... all Kiwis, 50/50 guy/girl split. Great fun there. The dinners were something to behold - it was like cooking, drinking & eating with a small army.

Every now and then I stumble on some photos from there - and I just crack up laughing. What the hell were we on?

Best was when me and Munsty shared a house thkugh I liked my own place in Germany. Hughie set them all challenges like a scavanger hunt - winner gets the house.

Well you see Andy, came in sat down and away and it felt like he would fit in fine, very easy to talk to like his sport and beer, even had a horrible attempt at a Mo. Winner Winner Chicken dinner.


Ash, she came in and was pretty easy going as well, works in sports event management, freebies!!! Very easy to look at and I reckon the girls in the house would prefer her. Oh and she loves her sport as well.


Its a tough one

Morning all: think my house at the moment is probably the best for me, all into the same 'scene' all like sport and my mate's moving in today--he's a teacher so decided to take the day off......

Flogging Molly tonight

Sounds lile reading that, that Ash would be the better one, but both sound a good choice though, so perhaps a win win situation for you Hughie

I am stuck in some random office today due to the strike action. Have got absolutely no work to do (all my admin stuff is in my usual office). Going to be bored out of my brain today I think.

Hughie, based on that Ash is the one to go for.

ooo I've just remembered something very important!

Penblwydd Hapus/Happy Birthday Lucky!

Hope you have a wonderful day

I have an audit to do at the home of whiskEy today in Bushmills.
If you don't hear from me for a few days don't panic
I can't swim though. I'll just have to drink fast.

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUCKY

Happy Birthday Lucky.

Lá breithe shona Lucko me old bucko!

Hughie, go for the chick.

morning all
video of the Harinordoquy incident that was mentionned yday night here.

Bayonne president looking to sue daddy harinordoquy.

Penblwydd Hapus Lucky!

cheers for the link whocares, will have to watch it later when I'm at home. Still can't believe his dad's done that though!

I have just realised something great about this office. It's 5 mins from my old house in Canton, which means it's only about 7 mins away from the amazing waffle shop I used to frequent, I so know where I'm going for my lunch

Rava - ah, I can just see how much of a hardship it's going to be for you to do that audit

Fanks, folks!

I can't believe the 'Tour of Four' is next weekend. I'll probably be skint by the end of it, but I really don't care!

I'll definitely be skint by the end of it Lucky, next weekend is my weekend before pay day = dim arian!

It'll all be worth it though, reckon it's going to be a brilliant weekend

Is that a Dragon on the Scarlets logo?

I just got my first xmas card, and a new welsh rugby shirt

ah nice one Cari!

I've asked for a new welsh rugby shirt for Nadolig too

Stag - aye, the Dragon's always been our symbol (and by our, yes I mean Llanelli before us).

How much did the jersey set you back, Cari? I'm getting a Dragons jersey as a birthday present, which'll be my first foray into the world of replica jerseys.

will you be going for this delightful design Lucky?

Strange then that Newport adopted Dragons as their moniker instead of the Black and Ambers.

you are such a WUM!


must...resist....responding....

Yikes! I'll pass on that one I think, Cari!

Stag, the Dragons was the natural choice for Gwent's regional team. The oldest surviving dragon skeleton was found in Cwmbran so it stands to reason.

Hippity hoppity burpday, luckster

Mike Tindall didn't tell porkies to MJ - he was too peed to remember what really happened so relied on what his equally peed chums told him - therefore he is exonerated. Must remember to use that at home - it's not my fault, I was simply too peed to remember

Thanks, As - that slice of cake will do nicely for elevenses!

As - I've used that reasoning for years!

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but dragons never existed

I've googled "Cwmbran Dragon Skeleton" and got nothing

Nothing. Someone bought it for me. I know that the ladies jersey (which is the one I have) is about £49.

I've binged it too. You sir are a liar, but its your birthday and I like your style

Ospreys
Scarlet Dragons
Blue Metro
Gwent Ambers

No regions, instead franchises.

Happy Birthday, Lucky

Just think, in a little over a week you can buy us all drinks to celebrate

Not the catchiest of names Stag....

gah I want the Scarlets' team announced already, they always make us wait so long

Neath Swansea Ospreys - The Ospreys
Llanelli Scarlets - Scarlet Dragons
Newport Gwent Dragons - Gwent Ambers
Cardiff Blues - Blue Metro

Nah mine are WAY catchier

Maybe, maybe not, Chef!

Stag, City Snoots would be a better name for the Blues.

Just had a phone call from my girlfriend. Her boss has sold the business - looks like out of work

That's no good at all, Stag. But as long as the business is still going, your girlfriend should be okay, shouldn't she?

oh no, not nice news Stag maybe the new owners will keep her on?

When I say he sold the business its unclear as to whats happening. Its a franchise and the head office has taken it over.

Business is not good at all and the Dublin office don't seem to think there's a future in it. There's a meeting this evening for them.

Its only a staff of 3 so its a small company.

Once again b.t haven't sorted out our system issue at work!! Happy b.day to Lucky for you sir.

Ah Stag, that’s rubbish. She works in retail doesn’t she? It’s not as if they’re opening shops by the dozen these days either.

Hopefully, they don’t close the shop though.

Yea she's in retail at the minute. She's pretty pished off today cos she doesn't know whats happening. Must get her good and drunk at the weekend.

Well i'll do all i can to help you with that.

Here, this doesn't even exist and i want one already...

The uncertainty must be the worst thing of all, Stag. It won't do you or her any good, but I'm sending out all the good vibrations I can muster.

Prop, thanks for the !

They're birthday vibes - they count double

Kado: can they call it itv or wouldn't channel 3 have rights to that?!

MASSIVE protest march in the 'Diff. Stretching from by the Westgate pub (where we were for the Amlin Final) back past the Castle, up to Quenn Street and beyond !!! It's taken them 10 minutes to walk past our building and thery are still going

So long as they're cleared by 3pm otherwise there'll be a few bodies flying back towards the castle as I head to a meeting. I have my views on this strike but not going to air them publicly as I think i'd get a backlash!!

Sorry - 'appy burpday Lucky
