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 wedding pictures of Dan Carter and Honor Dillon above the bar! And if anyone tells the Australian Womens' Weekly that KiwiRedDevil's Mum smuggled a camera into the service* there'll be hell to pay - they paid a fair amount for the exclusive Wink

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

Ale

Old Pub: https://www.606v2.com/t19779-the-dew-drop-inn-virtual-rugby-pub#757023

* Note to any lawyer-y types, that's a joke and is completely and utterly false, Mum forgot to put the camera in her handbag

Best moment of last weekend for me, was outside the Poultney Arms ln Bath, in the pishings of rain, pished, waiting on taxis, with Dreamer, Lucky, Prop and Chef... holding a large Pub Brolly over our heads...

Wonderful moment.

Love to your Nana Prop.

by Luckless Pedestrian Fri 16 Dec 2011, 11:30 pm

It was an awesome weekend all round, but I think my favourite bit was when I went outside the Pulteney Arms for a fag, realised I was a bit merry, and then heard the roar of the crowd from the Rec when Bath scored their try.

Still awake. Was knackered when I got home but just won't go to sleep.

Penfro is in the house but I haven't seen him yet. At some stage in the morning I say it will happen.

Sabaton. Good live act, especially given that I knew none of the songs beforehand.

by mickyt Sat 17 Dec 2011, 9:46 am

Morning all.

This is so wrong having to work on a Saturday. it does not feel right to me.

by prop_lyd Sat 17 Dec 2011, 10:06 am

Morning all, blydi freezing down here wish I could simply be spending time in the pub watching rugby not playing it!! Oh well!!

by **rodders** Sat 17 Dec 2011, 10:48 am

Hi folks quick question, has anyone signed up to that sky sports extra online thing? Do you get all the HEC game? I wonder if the quality of the streaming is any good?

by **rodders** Sat 17 Dec 2011, 11:00 am

sorry another couple of question for the Irish regs...

TG4 is listing Ulster v Aironi as game 1, does that mean they will show the full game?

Can the rugby be viewed online on TG4 in the North the way it could on RTE?

I can get it on the TV but feckin celebrity x-factor come dancing on ice final is on tonight.... steam

Thanks in advance

Morning (just).

After about 4hrs sleep and copious amounts of vodka I am feeling better than expected! (which is not saying a lot) Not sure how I'm going to make it round the shops for Christmas shopping though The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub - Page 9 3754190863

Missed all the rugby last night, gutted teh O's and Blues lost, hope it's not a sign for the rest of the weekend Welsh rugby wise.

by **Notch** Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:01 pm

When is the Munster-Scarlets game dreamer?

There was a WUM earlier predicting the slow death of Welsh Rugby based on the defeat against Australia and Ospreys and Blues indifferent European form.

That's why I love reading this place; Welsh Rugby is never just doing 'ok' is it? Smile

by Guest Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:03 pm

Welsh rugby was on a high couple of weeks ago, we're in the doldrums now Notch, tis doom and gloom everywhere! Being a Welsh rugby fan is never dull.

Munster Scarlets is on tomorrow, 12:40 kick off I believe. I suspect I shall be hungover in a pub to watch it.

by **Notch** Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:04 pm

Good stuff, want to catch it.

by Guest Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:08 pm

Yeah, fingers crossed it's better then the match between them last Saturday, that wasn't the best game of rugby I've ever seen. Praying for a LBP coz am not sure Rhodri Jones can step up to the front row starting spot quite yet. Be interesting to see how he goes.

by **Notch** Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:12 pm

Sorry dreamer- Munster are just too tough at Thomond for me to see anything barring a solid win! A LBP would be a good result.

I've got a feeling Ulster will only take 4 points at Aironi this week. Maybe even be struggling for the win if we don't take our chances. Here's what happened last week;

Whats the story, Glas?

by MrsP Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:39 pm

Well,

Were/are you busy with folks starting their New Year exercise regime early?

by Glas a du Sat 17 Dec 2011, 12:57 pm

Went up to a sheep sale in Ruthin. Big on hype, big on expectation, low on quality. Had to negotiate horrendous road conditions at 5.30 this morning and for what?

Afternoon all from a bright and sunny London. On the way to Gibboland. If he's at the pub in Pitshanger Lane (The Village Inn) we may well go past it depending on what bus we get to Ealing rugby.

Enjoy the games today folks

by Guest Sat 17 Dec 2011, 1:28 pm

Have a lovely day Hound Ale

Ah right, off out to the shops. If I don't survive, twas nice knowing you all......

by Rava Sat 17 Dec 2011, 1:45 pm

Ulster leading 7.0 after 10 minutes.

by Cari Sat 17 Dec 2011, 1:49 pm

Afternoon everyone.

I feel depressed. Wouldn't believe it was Christmas.
