The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub, Edinburgh

First topic message reminder :

Hello and 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 pub has made its way to Hopetoun House, Edinburgh - where the Management Team for the 2013 British & Irish Lions tour party to Australia was announced.

“This is the next chapter in the 2013 tour story," said tour manager Andy Irvine.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no tampering with the pictures of Warren Gatland,
Andy Farrell, Shaun Edwards, Kiwi Pete's Grandfather, Rava, Rodders, Andy Irvine, Graham Rowntree, Dr James Robson,
Paul Stridgeon, Kip Keino, Baggage Master Patrick O’Reilly and Lawyer Max Duthie above the bar.

Ale

The Dragons are very frustrating to support.

And the

is opened!!

Oh yeah Blwyddyn Newydd Dda to this gaff and all who frequent it. I forgot what day it was then...

This game's gone a bit flat.

by Glas a du Mon 31 Dec 2012, 5:40 pm

Fair play to the Dragons, the Ospreys looked as if they could lose, and selflessly as usual they are generous to a fault, give away 60 meters and a charge down.

I love the Dragons, but this is PATHETIC I'm sorry.

Will we still be in in Edinburgh for Hogmanay (page 20 is reached).

by Cari Mon 31 Dec 2012, 5:42 pm

Lovely try from Beck. Got to dirty that new clean shirt he's got on anyway. Looks like you were right Rev!

Och aye! I think we should stay here for tomorrow at least!

by Glas a du Mon 31 Dec 2012, 5:46 pm

It's unplayable because the Ospreys didn't release the man on the floor Nige!

by Gibson Mon 31 Dec 2012, 5:47 pm

Happy New year all. Hope 2013 makes ye smile more than frown.

Well the Dragons were poor, but a good team would have got a try bonus point from that game. Too much kicking.

Congrats Ospreys. Hope the travelling Ospreys have a safe trip back to Swansea.

Happy enough with our guts (bar the fair rucking), but Edwards when a flyhalf gets charged down twice, it's time for the replacement to be brought on

by Gibson Mon 31 Dec 2012, 6:20 pm

Rev! XXXX. Ale

Happy New Year to you and yours pal. Love you man.

by Glas a du Mon 31 Dec 2012, 6:22 pm

Cheers Gibbo thumbsup

Sorry Rev, you were well beaten tonight. To create only one try and be gifted the second with you merrily self destructing was woeful from the Ospreys.

by Cari Mon 31 Dec 2012, 6:30 pm

Commiserations Rev. cider

Happy New Years you bunch of hallyians, rascals and scallywags!!!!

Hope 2013 is suitably epic for you all and your respective rugby clubs (though not at the expense of ulster)

If anyone from here sees me on newsline later I do apologise.

I wish you all a preposterous....phosperous...New Year too...eh... Erm

by Luckless Pedestrian Mon 31 Dec 2012, 6:47 pm

Too much kicking is absolutely right. Losing is one thing, but losing when you haven't really thrown everything at the opposition is another. We never put the ball through the hands until the 80th minute. That's just unforgivable.

by Cari Mon 31 Dec 2012, 6:49 pm

It's bad enough thinking our Hound is a girl...but why the fuss if he uses the Tube? Wink

Unless I'm the victim I hope not.

Cari - I'm betting that mutt belongs to a homeless person. Or someone who regularly travels into central London to beg, with dog in tow for the sympathy vote.

If everyone is off elsewhere bringing in the New Year then I wish you all a good one.

That'll do for me. Though apparently Mick Hucknall is on at some point, I may have to utilise the mute button...

by **Biltong** Mon 31 Dec 2012, 10:44 pm

Happy new year all, may your year be filled with joy, prosperity and plenty of wins.

Good call on Hucknall, swanny

by prop_lyd Mon 31 Dec 2012, 10:46 pm

Not a chance hound!!!! 4th is ours! Fair play though Dai's done well

by littleswannygirl Mon 31 Dec 2012, 11:02 pm

Never been a Hucknall fan Hound but then he had the audacity to cover Ray Charles and Otis Redding, Lonely Avenue and That's How Strong My Love Is respectively. NOOOOO!! mad

Both crimes put him firmly on my hit list boxing

Happy New Year Regs Bubbly

All right I'm six minutes early....I was contemplating going to bed earlier but next door are having a party.

by Cari Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:00 am

OK now it's proper New Year cause Big Ben's just bonged Yahoo

by **Pal Joey** Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:10 am

Happy New Year Folks.... just watched Big Ben bong off too. Ale

Setting up a new pawb soon. Any suggestions welcome. The weirder the better.

Also any fizzog suggestions for the wall of fame/infamy!

by prop_lyd Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:34 am

Happy new year all, let's go to the first place to hit new years
cider

bit of dubliners!!

by **Pal Joey** Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:38 am

Didn't Samoa cross the Date Line earlier this year? Or Kiribati... or the eastern tip of Caroline Island (aka Kiribati)?

The last place is one of the islands on the Aleutian Islands chain. poor buggers.

by littleswannygirl Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:41 am

Oh the Dubliners! So remind me of my old dad, he loved them. We used to listen to their tapes on long car journeys, and sing along, that has made me Smile

Isn't Samoa one of the first? Weather has to be better there than here any road Rolling Eyes

by littleswannygirl Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:43 am

Snap!

by **Pal Joey** Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:44 am

That's great driving music, Swanny. Very Happy

What portraits for the wall? Tony Greig? Need help for rugby players though.

Who has been setting the world on fire lately?

by Pete C (Kiwireddevil) Tue 01 Jan 2013, 12:45 am

Samoa changed, so they were first. Coconut rum or kava it is then.

Happy new year all. I've been on the Balvenie all evening. Hic. Whisky

by prop_lyd Tue 01 Jan 2013, 1:00 am

For the wall: Glos: Mike Nicholls.
For Cardiff Sarries: Babsy-passed away after playing our boxing day match.

Both on the wall would be a massive honour
