The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

by Cari Wed May 18, 2011 4:25 pm

Welcome all to the new pub. Hopefully the traditions from the last 606 will continue here in our new home. The only new rule I have really is, see that Tommy Bowe signed picture there above the bar? If anyone defaces that, they're barred. There'll be banter, indepth discussion, some rambling but above all mutual respect as always. It all looks very swish, but we still serve traditional beverages and food. So what'll it be?

Oh if you have any complaints by the way, don't look at me - speak to rugbydreamer cause she's a mod! Very Happy

Now to fire up the jukebox...

Wow this gaff is different.

by Adam D Wed May 18, 2011 4:31 pm

The service in here is terrible.

I have been waiting for an appletini since midday.

Anyway, welcome one and all. I have made the thread a "sticky" so it should always be at the top of the board below the subsections.

Now wheres the barlady?

by Guest Wed May 18, 2011 4:32 pm

new pub!!

nooo Cari don't point that out! I'm hoping for an easy as time on the moderation front as possible! Might I direct you all to Ospreylian instead if you have any issues/complaints? Wink

and drinks all round is it?

Hello dreamer muffy and Rava good to see you all! Very Happy

Na Penfro, you're only barred if you deface the Tommy picture. That is not allowed!!

By the way, it's quite amusing if you try to swear on here... angel

Dancing on the pool table with reality TV star Gavin Henson, just like old times.

Hobo: Do you do spritzers?

by WillyGilly Wed May 18, 2011 4:58 pm

Checking in Very Happy

Are we allowed to use unparliamentry language in this establishment? Or will I be shot down faster than an intern at Chelsea Football Club?

by **Notch** Wed May 18, 2011 4:59 pm

He'll get a pint of stout and he'll enjoy it.

And don't even THINK about sneaking any blackcurrrant in there! Wink

by Guest Wed May 18, 2011 4:59 pm

Penfro - sounds a great plan to me! thumbsup

Hobo - we have an extensive list of ciders and ales too, fear not! Wink

Hobo,this good enough for you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvNvG2krOYw

by Cari Wed May 18, 2011 5:03 pm

Look, just cause this place is new, it's not one of them fancy '80s looking wine bars you know.

This is a traditional pub! No Brains though....and that's just the staff Very Happy

by Adam D Wed May 18, 2011 5:04 pm

Funnily enough, the owner of the site (Hero) said I reminded him of JD yesterday!

by prop_lyd Wed May 18, 2011 5:08 pm

Wow this place is massive!! It's just like the tardis!! So very blue as well, can we paint it?

by Cari Wed May 18, 2011 5:09 pm

Oh yeah Prop, I suppose Gloucester red/white stripes would be OK? ;-)

by Guest Wed May 18, 2011 5:11 pm

I was thinking how nice a scarlet colour in here would look myself.... Whistle

by Adam D Wed May 18, 2011 5:13 pm

Just to clarify the emails you will be receiving about new posts.

In your profile, you can switch them off for all future topics you comment on.
You will have to manually turn them off (there is an option on the email) for any thread you have commented on before doing this. You will only have to do this once.

Hope that helps!

And it stays blue in here!

by Suspicious lurker Wed May 18, 2011 5:15 pm

Just posting here, still trying to figure it out

by mickyt Wed May 18, 2011 5:17 pm

do you mean stop watching this topic hobo?

by Adam D Wed May 18, 2011 5:20 pm

mickyt wrote:do you mean stop watching this topic hobo?

Yes!

You will still see the topic in red when you log on if there is a new post on it but you wont receive a email. thumbsup

Also, you will notice a small icon next to the user name (looks like a small box with an arrow in the bottom right corner) - if you click that instead of the topic name, it will take you to the last post you read.

Any other questions will be answered after I get a cold Colt 45

by WillyGilly Wed May 18, 2011 5:24 pm

Notch nips in and grabs the last ever post smart thinking sir

by Thomond Wed May 18, 2011 5:24 pm

by **Notch** Wed May 18, 2011 5:24 pm

I made the final final post on the old pub on 606, with Cari having said her piece.

I hope it's to the old regs liking!

by Cari Wed May 18, 2011 5:25 pm

At least it was relevant Willy. Cheers Notch thumbsup

Yep! Just listening to 'Con Te Partiro' (Time to Say Goodbye) sung by Botticelli as I ceremoniously remove 606 from my bookmarks bar...

by Luckless Pedestrian Wed May 18, 2011 5:27 pm

Hello, can I have a shot of Jagermeister in a yard of ale glass please, barmaid?

I don't have any money, so I've drawn you a pretty picture of a horse on rollerskates instead. Yours to keep.
