The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the Tommy Bowe photo on the bar. That's a banning offence

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

Poets day tomorrow

by Cari Thu 9 Jun - 22:05

Have a good one Dreamer Ok!

by Mick(TEFC) Thu 9 Jun - 22:05

Do you guys have a bank holiday this weekend?
it's Penetecôt over here,so Monday is closed

by Guest Thu 9 Jun - 22:06

Will do Cari, thank you Smile

Was about to have an early night but have just remembered Mock the Week is on, love it!

by The_Hound_of_Harrow Thu 9 Jun - 22:08

Yep, good luck Stag thumbsup

I feel it is what you want to do at this stage.

Oh, to have a job within walking distance of home. The only downside for me is that it's 'too close'.

dteamer - I'm pleased you're going to be able to watch your team in the JWC. Tough pool though, but Wales should put up a good show.

Watch Aus in this competition; I feel that they may do very well. NZ to win it though (as ever). For :reddevil:

Aye, a ti.

It is accelerating. Which is nice.

Hobo deserves it, for all the work he's done and all the help he gave us to feel comfortable on here.

Here's a pint for himself when he drops in.

Exactly he's some man for one man.

cheers guys - I really appreciate it.

Hopefully I will get to meet some of you on one of your meet ups.

I will be honest, I was only ever a international rugby follower and have only been to a handful of games in my life but 606v2 has really ignited my passion for it. I have found myself watching old games and the last few cup finals.

I am also considering going to see Glasgow Warriors this season!

Bringing on the rugby board has really got me into things big time - I am loving all things rugby now. Getting a good following on twitter too which is nice! up to 190 followers in under a month - not bad from a standing still and way ahead of the other v2 twitter accounts.

Glad you all feel at home - as always, anything I can do, just holler!

Poets Day, Cymro?

We don't have a public holiday for Pentecost in the UK, Chef.

by Glas a du Thu 9 Jun - 22:14

Until tomorrow, Hobo thumbsup

Glad you're getting more into rugby Hobo. And hey go watch the Warriors, why not eh?

Hound - aye we have a hard group but I think we'll give a good account of ourselves.

Stag - fingers crossed for you about the job

Munsty - good luck with the exam, and enjoy the BBQ Smile

Nos da pawb/Good night all

by Luckless Pedestrian Thu 9 Jun - 22:19

Ah, I see!

No, I don't get an early finish on Fridays. Everyone else in the office does, but I have to stay on til half three just in case someone from head office calls. It's okay though, it means I'm free to watch porn - I mean, cute baby animals doing funny things.

by Glas a du Thu 9 Jun - 22:22

Nos da Dreamer.

Jeepers stiffening up a treat now after my escapades. Hip and shoulder. I knew I should have had a bath. Don't worry though Stag, I'll be fine.

by Gibson Thu 9 Jun - 22:23

Nite Cari.Nite Dreamer. Nite Stag. Nite Hobo. Nite Chef, Nite Cymro. Nite Glas. Nite Lucky.

Since when did 1 comment in 44 become always ?

by **Notch** Thu 9 Jun - 23:54

Since we've been posting on 606 for years we are familiar with your history and posting style.

by **Notch** Fri 10 Jun - 0:06

I'm not getting involved in this, I'm not taking sides. I'm just pointing out that we know your online persona.

by nottins Fri 10 Jun - 0:09

So, a few near the knuckle comments over 8 years of posting on Scrum V/606 means I ALWAYS post crude comments ? Do your angry comments on 606 mean you always post angry comments ?

by **Notch** Fri 10 Jun - 0:12

YES!

You seem to have me confused with Munsty. I didn't say that. He did. I just pointed out that we've read a lot more posts of yours than 44.

by nottins Fri 10 Jun - 0:19

I'm not confusing you with anyone. Just to remind you, that everyone on here starts with a clean slate. I made many thousands of posts on 606 on Scrum V/606 before you joined, perhaps you should read all those before saying you know my "online persona"

by **Notch** Fri 10 Jun - 0:20

Why so serious?

by nottins Fri 10 Jun - 0:24

One could ask you the same question.

by **Notch** Fri 10 Jun - 0:26

I'm not the one whose a) accusing anyone of being crude or b) getting all worked up about it. I'm just the one suggesting Munsty has read more than 44 of your posts over the past few years.

I don't think you fully understand what's going on here laughing

by nottins Fri 10 Jun - 0:31

I'm not getting worked up about it. I'm sure it will all make sense when the Shiraz Mataro has worn off Hug

Bit harsh on the lad when he was only commenting on my post about touching boobies and having a quick hand sandy

Anyway, morning all, stag you'll probably be the first up so morning buddy today papers

Morning all. Wondering if I should keep this formatted colour in place. No doubt Asbo will be along for his eggs soon.

by Adam D Fri 10 Jun - 7:09

My preference is that you dont - remember one of the things that made 606 so successful was its low visibility at work.

Start posting in green and some people may decide that people can see what they are up to and not come on.

Just my thoughts on the matter.

by red_stag Fri 10 Jun - 7:14

Good point Hobo.

by Suspicious lurker Fri 10 Jun - 7:15

Morning lads,

My last of seven days of earlys today then off for four days, which is sweet!!! Flip all cash to spend on the weekend though haha typical

by red_stag Fri 10 Jun - 7:16

Hughie, just enjoy the time off. Half the stuff in London is free Smile

Get over to the Science Museum or Natural History Musuem. Great day out without putting hand in pocket.

by Glas a du Fri 10 Jun - 7:22

Bore da.

Week today and I will be on a bus on it's way to Liverpool, to catch a boat to Ynys Mannaw (the Isle of Man).

Stag, you're brilliant Hug

by red_stag Fri 10 Jun - 7:24

Any particular reason Glas or just my usual array of awsomeness!

by Suspicious lurker Fri 10 Jun - 7:24

Lads I was thinking yesterday right, you know when you take headache tablets and they say, take two blah blah blah blah, why not just make them bigger and just have you take one??

by Glas a du Fri 10 Jun - 7:28

Or make the whole bottle a gobbstopper that you have a bit of a suck on every time you have a headache, like a drip feed sort of thing.

Simple answer is so that you can give kids 1 tablet Hughie.'

Nice day in the foggy dew here, hopefully she stays like this for the weekend, got my Casa to myself all day tomorrow and plan to sit in a paddling pool in the garden drinking beer and eating hotdogs, so I'll need a bit of sunshine!

by Suspicious lurker Fri 10 Jun - 7:37

That's fair enough lads with the like of panadol, but nurofen are tiny they could easily make it in one

Now THAT is the life!!

Flip me, a 1000 posts.

I need to get a life!

Very Happy

by Luckless Pedestrian Fri 10 Jun - 7:40

Morning all.

Good point about headache tablets, Hughie. When we were younger my eldest sister always took three at a time, so there was always only one left at the end of the packet. One is no good to anyone.

Last time I was in London I went to the British Museum. I'd definitely recommend it, there's so much to see - a few months after I'd been I saw a documentary and realised I'd missed loads of stuff!

by red_stag Fri 10 Jun - 7:42

Luckless, thats what I love about London. Theres so much there thats free to do. You don't have to spend a fortune entertaining yourself there.

by Mickado Fri 10 Jun - 8:06

Nacewa won't be At the world cup.

I feel conflicted about it, but the overriding emotion is disappointment.
