The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

by Guest Mon Jun 20, 2011 7:07 am

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 Tommy Bowe photo on the bar. That's a banning offence

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

Congrats Notch, my results are out tomorrow and I'm anticipating a very unpleasant interview with the parents. Oy vey...

by **Notch** Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:31 am

Thanks Dreamer. Graduation is on the 4th July. My brother is arriving this weekend for a little while and he's going to be able to be there as well Smile

Going off to Donegal with him and the parents for a bit next week. I haven't seen him in a year so that'll be good.

Willy, I thought mine were out tomorrow; thats what we had been told. For some reason they came out early. You might want to check QSis!

by **Notch** Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:32 am

Thanks guys.

by Guest Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:34 am

Enjoy it! (or try to anyway! I absolutely hated mine, my parents made me go...)

Here man have a guinness

England winding this down now, but I admire the French for trying to play like the real France.

by The_Hound_of_Harrow Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:35 am

Well done Notch, despite the'disappointment'.

France try disallowed - forward pass. France forcing it now and making errors.

by johnpartle Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:37 am

Bourgeois not showing his class for France

Sorry, couldn't resist.

by Gibson Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:39 am

Hoi Hound, Ale

Been a good game this, in parts. France having a go, England gobbling it up. Too much nous it seems. Front-5 were brilliant.

Interception. Alex Gray. Try! . Captain....

by WillyGilly Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:39 am

Haha that woman just nabbed a tennis ball lolz

Nope just checked no results for me yet. I'll go to bed tonight praying for an admin error.

Wow someone just nabbed it back off her.

by Cari Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:40 am

Congratulations Notcheroo Smile

There's a shortage of celebratory smilies on here...

by The_Hound_of_Harrow Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:40 am

And it's cost them big time. Interception by skipper Alex Gray to wrap it up. 33-18. Really good 2nd half with France playing much better.

by **Notch** Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:41 am

That's my celebration!

by Cari Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:43 am

Can't do that when Tommy scores a hat trick though Notch. I want the magic one back...or some other one that looks like it...

by Gibson Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:43 am

And now... for some Antipodean fireworks! guinness

Can Oz even stay with them?

The Magic One is back ... story Girrrl? zen

by The_Hound_of_Harrow Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:50 am

Doubtful gibbo. Aus had a good team last year but a lot of that team no longer qualify to play.

by MBTGOG Thu Jun 23, 2011 4:58 am

Evening all,

Have finally seen X-Men First Class. Good movie if not outstanding. Fassbender and McAvoy played their roles well.

by Guest Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:01 am

Scarlets have sold 2,500 season tickets in three weeks, 20% up on last year zen

by Cari Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:03 am

Howya Gibbob guinness

Just chilling out now for the evening. I've really enjoyed my week at work so far tho, and some have been impressed with my efforts over there Smile

I've got a headache now though, but I think that's cause I'm a bit dehydrated.

Looking forward to checking out the Heino DVD - two discs too! Plenty of Ferg to see (droool).

That's good news dreamer. You are doing slightly better than us where season ticket sales are 7% up on last season. Don't know exactly how many bums on seats that equates to though.

by Gibson Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:18 am

Yeah mate agree. And... they were hot favs v France - who had them. Does not augur well really...

But the Aussies wont lie down easy vs the Kiwis. Got a great backline.

Just hope to see some mad open,running rugby. And I do believe I will.
England awaits...

Wooooo. guinness

well any increase on last year is going to be good! Smile

Not sure actually how many we sold last year, so not sure really how good a marker 2,500 is, still I'm glad we've sold that many so far. Tis so important we start getting more fans at matches.

by Suspicious lurker Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:25 am

Oz have started very well here, no s ore after 12 minutes

Oh scratch that, oz score in the corner to take the lead, 5-0 conversion to follow

by The_Hound_of_Harrow Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:28 am

Aus making NZ think a bit here. Well worked score. Still think NZ will win this though.

by perthshirepuma Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:31 am

Oi, Cari! How do you already have your Heino DVD from Amazon and I have an email saying their suppliers have run out and I wont get mine until the second week in July! The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub - Page 17 177851

Curses. But Lovefilm have finally sent me Inception so looking forward to watching that.

In other news, going to Hamilton Park races tomorrow, where Himself (and significant other) will be corporate guests of Belhaven. So today I bought new shoes, new trousers and new top. Well, couldn't show him up could I? Heh, heh. Bring on the champagne and prawn sandwiches.

Well done on the degree result, Notch!

<stillnoredwinemoticonHobo>

BB's (Brigitte Bardot's) taking a grip. Oz really staying with them. But for how long?

Gibbo I can't promise I won't be able to keep from pausing on Lukey's orse and us lot! Very Happy

Puma - my mam pre-ordered the DVD ages ago for me and it was sent out on Monday the day of release.

by Gibson Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:11 am

Mon Oz!
Believe!

by perthshirepuma Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:14 am

That's OK, Cari, I've got a recording of the match burned on to a disc from the Sky+ (I have the technology) which will keep me happy until The Real Thing arrives. For tonight, I can dribble over Leonardo di Caprio instead! Very Happy

by Suspicious lurker Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:14 am

Gibbo you bringing any "oregano" to France with you??

by Mick(TEFC) Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:20 am

He'll be bringing next year's oregano,hughie;don't worry,it grows like weeds here.

by Cari Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:23 am

Puma - it's a two disc edition with extras which you might like so it's worth a Leinster fan getting it. Smile

Oregano? Oh roysh.

Naw, this year I will be mostly bringing seeds to sow. Sowing the seeds of lurve... zen

If I drive or get the train down.. yup. I will bring a selection-box. If not - I wont.

We could make a mean curry pal.

by Gibson Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:29 am

That's the BB's away. Was only a matter of time.

Oz have had to work hard to stay with them. It's telling now.

by The_Hound_of_Harrow Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:36 am

Aus handling has been awful in this 2nd half. Fair play to NZ, they have moved up a gear.

by Gibson Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:38 am

I think Oz have shown the way for England here. For the 1st 50 mins anyway.

That Final could be a lot closer then most think.

by Guest Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:43 am

even our U20's side loses to Fiji Crying or Very sad

think the final score was 34-20. equal on tries but Fiji kicked more penalties. Wales can now only finish 7th at best.

by prop_lyd Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:56 am

Ah finally done, had a guy from the national office of statistics come over and he took an hour to ask bloody questions argh!!!!
