Jed's Super-Dooper Baileys Pub for Newbies, Dragons, Saints & Sinners
So, did you miss not having a pub for twelve hours?
![]() For those who are just joining us, this is where you can come and relax, have a pint of Guinness, or maybe a soft drink, or maybe one of our all time favourite drinks -- Baileys. ![]() (In fact you can have any drink as long as it isn't orange juice, I really don't like orange juice. Orange juice is nasty, horrible, yucky and a lot of other words I won't use here.) It is also the sequel to the Super-Dooper 'Traditional Irish Pub' thread. The original thread last for almost 30,000 posts and was as awesome a thread and pub as you could get. Anyways, where was I? Oh, yes. Come in and pull up a chair at the bar and talk, chit-chat, discuss, blabber away about nothing in particular, or just have a drink and laugh with friends. We have added a pool table over in the corner and will now be serving some pub meals. For newbies, you can practice your posting and get to know other newbies, and not so new newbies, or perhaps those who remember being a newbie and want to part with some advice. Or the very least want a free drink. So, get posting. The first drink is on the house. As are the rest

Okay, you can have a glass, but I can't tell you where the stash is, as it's a sekrit in a sekrit place under the bar next to the maltesers. So you'll never find it.

Yeah, so I was just over at the old pub and was all geared up to post, but then there was this forbidding-looking button at the bottom that just said Closed! Man, was I bummed...and then I found this place.

Threads on AW can't go over 30,000 posts, which is the real reason for closing it down. Just in case anyone was wondering

Just in case anyone was wondering, I'm not crazy, Jed is just psychic. I swear I posted my question before his answer came up, even though the order is the other way around.
Either that or I really need a stiff one!

Yep, space, loadability, and other stuff that is very technical and full of made up words

Love the new name Jed---glad you liked it!! Now down to business---baileys--check, special mug--check, poker tables---hey--where are the poker tables? How can one go all in without the poker tables? *Sits at bar* Hate it when the delivery guy shows up late!!

Poker tables? Oops, I ordered the pool tables. A mix up. I'll try and sort it out, you just have to hang on in there until they show up. In the mean time, drinks all round

You buyin!! I'm there!! Here's to the new pub, where we all might know the Newbies and the Dragons, but will never tell who the Saints or Sinners are!!
All In!! Just practicing!
