The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub, Dar es Salaam

First topic message reminder :

Hamjambo. Karibuni 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 pub has ventured to Dar es Salaam in Tanzania to visit pub regular MBTGOG on his big trip there. Maisha marefu! Afya! Vifijo!

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the pictures of Sir Fred "The Needle" Allen, Aberdeen Shikoyi, Isoa Damudamu, Chris "Mossy" Patterson, Nathan Hines and Simon Danielli. The poor defenseless IRB referee's jersey draped over the dartboard is fair game though Whistle

Penfro: Mark Ring appears more animated than he did at our club dinner!!

by PenfroPete Mon 7 May 2012 - 18:42

78 minutes and a penalty to Keys, he'll take the minute. 32 - 19

Well done Keys, a just reward for a great season clap

Ponty will have to re-group for the Final of the Premiership Play=offs against either Llanelli or Aberavon

PROP - he'll get all the media credit, but he's not the Head Coach

by prop_lyd Mon 7 May 2012 - 18:47

Didn't realise their head coach is only 31!!

Thrilled to bits for Keys, fair play Bubbly

Keys Keys Keys. Wish I could get howling. Got to get up early to drive to work. I went about the same colour as Ringo at the end.

I thought the MOTM was Leon Andrews (13) not Rob Nash, but there you are. I said after the Munster A game that Gerwyn Price the Keys hooker should get picked up by the Dragons. Two lovely tries in the second half by the Keys.

I thought he was excellent too Rev. He and the Ponty 10 were the stand out backs on the pitch.

Billy, IEC 61508 is Functional Safety.

Functional safety is the detection of a potentially dangerous condition resulting in the activation of a protective or corrective device or mechanism to prevent hazardous events arising or providing mitigation to reduce the fight consequence of the hazardous event.

An example would be smoke detectors that, on activation, introduce a fire suppression system.

MrsP. You're a young, pretty girlie. Dont over-stress that confused brain with Man's politics. Think of fluffy tings.

Not a bad day out! The gal kind of enjoyed it but said she'd prefer to see a game with a bit more atmosphere and less air horns......that's the problem with sitting with a group from the valleys Wink

Prop, a word to the wise young man. Dont spoil her. Never, ever - take her to a Leinster game, or you'll lose her forever. Keep with Glaws, or if you really want to keep her - take her to Limerick for a game.

No charge. Tricky cider

by MrsP Mon 7 May 2012 - 21:34

And, no-one told me that the Russians had invaded The Pale either.

See what happens when my mind is on the later stages of the HEC.

Gibbo: I've already lost her to your lot as the first match we watched was Wales vs Ireland and she heard Sexton's name and instantly giggled so he's her favourite player...........hence why she's happy to go to an autumn international when we're over!! Wink

No tricky for me sorry....on call all week!!

by Gibson Mon 7 May 2012 - 22:01

Ah Prop man, you just smile through your posts. It must be LOVE.

So happy for you. You deserve it.

I respect Crimey for that. Just dont tell im. cuppa

Billy I responded to your question yesterday about Functional Safety.

I'm trying to figure out how to ensure I get Gibbo and the Chef to the top of Twickers and back down safely next weekend.

I appear to have turned procrastination into a fine art The next stage of my proofreading course is a marked assignment and so far I have managed to find reasons (excuses!) to delay doing it for 3 days

I will shortly get peed off with myself and just do the blydi thing!

Not been an entirely wasted few days though as I have been putting in some foundations for going self-employed.

I notice that there's a fair few regs on Linkedin. I've registered but was wondering if people find it helpful/useful? Is it something I should make use of?

swanny, I use it a fair bit, mainly as a networking tool - some of the group discussions can be pretty good, and I know that headhunters use it a fair bit too

Morning all, usual for me pls: mug

Everyone except the IRFU, Kidney and Sin E stag.......

I totally agree with Williams though, Kidney should be telling Leinster to boot the ball away more and use more garryowens.

Yeah, but a certain Cloggie said it 3 years ago, when he was appointed. Just sayin. Anyway, Ireland do not exist for me till he goes. Simple as.

I can only imagine how the Jocks feel.

by Rava Tue 8 May 2012 - 10:01

I was just reading about the Pro 12 awards. Nice to see Nigel getting a mention

The other Welsh winner on the night was international referee Nigel Owens. He was awarded the inaugural 'RaboDirect Straight Talking' title for the no-nonsense way in which he communicated with players throughout the season.

The use of the Mobile Phone just swung it for him Wink
