The Polar Bear Inn, a virtual pub

My husband and I used to play crib when the children were little trouble was if he won he went to the pub to celebrate and if he lost he went to the pub to sulk! He always brought me a Guiness back though :)

Lack of baby sitter and cash to pay 1 was my problem Now with no kids at home we can only afford to drink at home or in your virtual pub:(:)
 
when i first got the internet, must have been 96 when it was very very hard to connect and you payed per minute, the first thing i tried was crib on msn, i couldnt believe the program i was playing against, it was amazing at crib and even gave me a partner to play with that sounded human when it spoke to me, turned out to be a real person of course i realised this when the answers to my questions where too human especilly when i asked what : ) meant, and the person said look at it sideways, totally blew my mind, my partners name was bobcat and we played online together for years afterward, he was in florida and i just couldnt believe it was possible, hehe seems so natural now :)

I take the pub is quite because everyone is in the Carb Free Italian Restaurant on Valentines day evening......
 
Have I missed last orders? Think we should start virtual crib league! Mines a Chardonnay as usual!
 
If I'm not around please help yourself to the booze and food, we operate on the trust system here, its all about getting together and chewing the fat (without the carbs).

I've booked Chas 'n' Dave for entertainment tonight with some lovely seafood all round ! Cockles, whelks and shrimp ! Sorry Thommo, I took the money out the till ! Cheers :-)
 
Dear God! Landlord get me a large glass of Chardonnay quick! My mother, who is absolutely lovely , has come for a visit. Let's just say that she doesn't do subtle! She is in the kitchen, explaining to my 8year old daughter (who is as thin as a bean pole) why it is important not to skip dessert because mummy is. The conversation is as follows:
Why don't you want any dessert? Are you worried about mummy.
No. I just don't want it.
Well..... Mummy's not taken care of herself and that's why she's fat. She's always been a bit of a salad dodger. But you're ok. You're like me (my mother weighs 9 stone) but my granny was a big lady as well.
Bless her, she doesn't realise I can hear! My husband is nearly wetting himself!
