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.

Later Hound, mind you dont lose your gold watch...

I'm back on 'the manor' and there's no feicer about. Well, no one interesting.

Oi PJ - your Bath are up next for Wasps. Hoping it's a good game next Sunday - there should be some tries scored if the weather is kind

Before that Ealing take on Macclesfield (from swanny country) on Saturday.

Nice, I can enjoy two 'home' games on Sat & Sun now, without worrying about how I feel on a Monday morning.

Hound, I wouldn't count on Bath scoring any bud, the way they've been playing they'll need help finding the Rec, the tryline Will be beyond them I fear.

Is it televised? I can't go I'm having an away weekend already in Jan.

Other news just in, I've just done Audrey Hepburns hair. #mincesoff

Sky Sports2 & Hd2 (Sunday from 14:30)

Not on the box PJ as far as I know.

Audrey Hepburn's hair? Are you on a painting mission?

Apologies PJ - our TV guru has corrected me . As it is a 3pm k.o. I assumed the game wasn't televised; the televised games are normally not at 3pm.

That's two

Feic roysh off!

I'm on a roll

Pete, love you man.

Yep Hound, sketched out 3 this morning and I'm now chilling with a brush and a Moscow Mule, happy feckin Christmas to me. Love it.

Let me know if you want one mate, but it'll be a couple of months though I've got to work through 4 others first.

Fancy an Einstein?

Glas, how's Sooty?

Resting.

Mine too. I'm so chilled I'm practically Arctic.

Aye, it looks like this blydi bug will do one just in time for me to pick up the cudgels Wednesday

Evening all, time for big fat quiz. Let's see how I get on!!

Ripper Street for me. Jerome has aged into a mean looking Bar Steward fair play...

Let me know how it is Glas....going to watch that tomorrow or Weds.

Entertaining enough if you ignore some of the modern police show staples shoe horned into it, notwithstanding the historical context. There was one very annoying line in the climax. I won't spoil it for you though, worth a look.

Ok cool, my sis' fiancee is a big ripper history fan so guessing he won't enjoy it.

It's set after the Ripper and doesn't claim to be based on true events, so no, probably not one for historical purists. Gets a bit far fetched in places.

Ah ok! I'll give it a go.

Somebody described it as a 'Cockney gangs of New York'.

Amazing. Just watched Ripper Street on playback, seriously, did anyone think it was her?

Is he a shedder too, Prop? Jus'askin like.

Nah he;'s a west walian who doesn't like rugby............time for a bit of nfl me thinks.

Time for zzzzs

I got my painting from PJ about a month ago, it is a sketch of Juan Smith, came out awesome and although it took a bit a time to get to SA (about six weeks) it looks awesome in my office.

Morning all, kettle's boiling, I'm off to play squash

Happy New Year! adios 2012

Fireworks are pretty good. Getting quite used to it all since the Bicentenary in '88... so 25 years now of pretty much the same thing.

Quite loud. Can see the top of it all and hear the boom-boom-boom. The shower of fire is now dripping off the Bridge.

Reminds me of a toothbrush for some reason.

Have a great 2013 everyone!!

Happy new year mate, hav a cracking 2013

And to you Breaker....still a few hours before we see in Jan!! Almost time

Happy New Year LB to a healthy and happy 2013

The fireworks sound great, I know they're not to everyone's taste but I love a good firework display

You'll be with us soon mate.

I can smell the gunpowder and hear some birds (egrets?) screeching outside.

Thanks Corne! a big stein for you my friend!

Cheers Swanny.

Yeah, it's hard to get too surprised each year. We get them about every 2 months on a smaller scale... for whatever reason... festivals, etc.

Prynhawn da pawb / afternoon all, and blwyddyn newydd dda, Breaker!

Looking forward to the Ospreys' visit to sunny Newport later. Prop, are you still coming down?

Cheers Tom.

still bloody banging going on.....

jeyzus... enough already hey!!!

blwyddyn newydd dda, El Lucko!

Not sure Lucky....I'll be up the road though so could possibly do a pint afer...you've got my number right?

I'm going to be driving into town so I won't be drinking.

Not to worry, we've got the whole of 2013 to meet for a few bevvies!

I'll join you Bryn. Just poured a large pint... Cooper's Extra Strong 'Vintage' Ale. It has a heavy, robust malt taste.

Ymlaen Dreigiau!

Afternoon All,

Finished work and got home in time to watch this derby. With any luck the O's will actually win this for a change. UP THE OPSREYS!

Someone tell 'Ound it's safe to put the telly on S4C

Not looking good already...

A converted try, but as usual it's followed by a stupid penalty. Thankfully Prydie kicked it miles away from the posts.

Beautiful kick Prydie.

Dragons, just kick your penalties, haven't you learnt from CAP?

Glas a du wrote:Dragons, just kick your penalties, haven't you learnt from CAP?

They might as well, the O's are handing this to them at the moment.

Passive touchjudging again. I wish we had a dog in our pack who would assist opposition players to roll away though.

Ospreys should win this by ten or so, but we are doing ok. Maybe Robling to kick now though.

I'm not sure the margin would be that wide Rev. Os giving away too many penalties at the moment...and Dan Biggar is intimidated at Dave again. I did chuckle at Jon Evans getting a row off Nigel for telling him how to do his job. He hates it when players do that.

Blydi prima Donna

Now come on Glas...when your balls aren't right you can't concentrate can you?
