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?

How far are you from Sale Sharks stadium Munsty?

Oh yeah.

Funny that.

She's not far wrong Stag, I'm doing my part to get this country back on it's feet, but I can't do it alone.

I've never even heard of meanies?!

Hovis crackers with a nice bit of stilton or bath blue and a glass of port for me!!

An hour on the train with change overs and stops.

I think we were discussing about setting up our own deli franchise over here.

The famine came about due to an over reliance on potatoes. I'm trying to make sure that won't happen again by getting a cajun chicken roll when I go into the garage.

England vs. Kenya next up in the 7's, should be a good game.

T, get a bagel cut it in half toast it, strawberry jam and Philadelphia on top. Superb

Yes, it’s all coming back to me now.

Man, we’ve had some good ideas over the years. If only we had the follow-through we’d be millionaires. Still, would we be happy?

I think there’s a gap in the market for rude jokes in Christmas crackers, not with swearing necessarily, just stuff like “the turkey tastes like yer ma”.

That type of thing.

Munsty, I would like to invest in that company if you set it up.

it's ridonkulous the lact of breaky roll deli stuff you guys miss out on over there.

the idea of rolling out of bed hung like a donkey and just grabbing a breaky roll and a yop excites me

hung like a donkey? NOT A CLUE WHY I SAID THAT.

I meant Hung over hanging together.

Micky =

Mickado, is there a nearby shop where a brekkie roll can be got a Sat morning at your gaff?

Micky



I have genuinely put some thought into this and the big problem at the moment is that unlike over here in Ireland, newsagents and corner shops don't have the space to fit in a proper deli. Garages could be a starting point though.

Stag, I recently (re)bought Ross O’Carroll Kelly’s guide to south Dublin (how to get by on like, €10,000 a day) and it describes Rathgar as “new deli” owing to the number of places you can get takeaway food.

So yeah, we could have them coming out of our ears on Saturday morning. But I might just cook us up a fry of superquinn sossys and puddin. If you’re good.

Oh jeez Mick, memories of last year's amazing brekkie come flooding back. Im just sad Im gonna miss the Toy Show. Gonna have to Sky+ it.

Pete: how're wales doing at the moment?!

Just remembered I've got a leinster flag, guess I'll take it to bath whilst wearing a glaws top and welsh flag....how popular am I going to be at the rec??!!

Stag,

Take Mick up on his offer of a fry up. He's got some skills that boy.

You have to do it!

Dont need to tell me twice. BTW you want any chipsticks, meanies, Irish breakfast materials etc?

I'll take some meanies stag!! Intrigued by them oo and soda bread if that's not too much bother?!

Won their first tow pool games prop, as have Australia and they meet in the final game in their pool in about an hour.

If Wales win the pool they will likely face Samoa (or an outside chance of Argentina) in the quarters, or if they finish runners up it will be Fiji.

I’ve been to England many times, and the biggest problem with the country is the lack of white pudding.

Oh sure, black pudding can be found, but ask for the white version and you’re looked at like you’ve 7 heads. Our new business venture must address this imbalance.

I forgot about white pudding!!!! Sorry stag if it's ok or any irish regs travelling over then those 3 things would make my christmas....no pressure!!

Have already ordered the white pudding for the Tour of Four: Ramsays of Carluke - there will also be introductions to haggis pudding, flat Lorne sausage and fruit pudding for breakfast

I agree with Mickado, I think the UK are pudding racists.

Never really had black pudding until we went to that place was it in Bristol?? the Michelin star place?

that was totes amazeballs that time..

Consider it done.

Meanies are great things. Sometimes I cant stand them - other times Id eat 3 bags. You need to be in the mood for a strong pickled onion crisp.

Is haggis pudding very different to haggis, Asbo? I've tried haggis once; I thought I'd like it but I didn't.

Yea I'll bring a white and black pudding too Prop.

Nah, same deal, lucky

Asbo - I'm interested to try all of them anyway.

Had chicken thighs stuffed with haggis at the London Scottish dinner, was absolutely lovely. Gutted to be missing the upcoming gathering

Good man, Staggy - Hoog is cooking, I'm just his sous-

One of my fav foods is when I make haggis lasagne, so filling too!! Asbo: will it be washed down with scrumpy, hot cider or hot whiskey?!

With you on that Mick. I am starting to give up mentioning white pudding in conversations about fry-ups over because what's the point? No, I should give up, people over here need to know what they are missing out on and demand they get it.

Stag,

If you could bring over chip sticks, that would be marvellous. Also some Cadbury's Dairy Milk would go down a treat. The Irish version is much better.

What song will it be this time?

Tell ye what, cos we'll be waking you up, we'll let you have a request? can't say fairer than that

That's two things I want to try next weekend - some real ales and hot whisky.

I’d love to try some haggis, looks like a cousin of pudding.

I know it’s not technically “food” but I’m starving and hungover so I convinced the gang in work to take me to MaccieD’s drive through.

I’ll have 18 burgers please and thanks!

prop, all of the above, except that lask muck, which you could use as gravy on your haggis pudding

I say we do 'star trekkin' by The Firm, gives everyone a character then!! Only a week to go till it

It has to be 'Away in a Manger,' surely?

A week? Nah our fun starts tonight - Rava, Mickado, Redstag, Gibbo, MickyT and others!!

I'll have a from the forest for each of you tonight

The Leinster poster Pete will be there too Stag. He’s meeting us in the RDS.

Excellent stuff Mick. I have a lot of time for him.

He knows his onions and always tries to move discussions along if they get stale.
He won’t need to use those skills in Cassidy’s later, banter will be on tap.

Hope Pat is there, haven’t seen him in ages. Love that man.

I dont think I've ever spoken to him. Looking forward to a catch up with George and Shelly though. Your miserable face will be cool too

Is Gibbo going to be there tonight? Say hello to him for me will you? It feels too long since I've spoken to him properly.

Will do Munsty. Ill tell him come up to Chester with me
