Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 This thread has gotten waaaaaaaay off track, therefore I hope this unites Kickback and we can get back to discussing top heavy barmaids.

Andy.C Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Diggers is my local and has its place for sure. Pretty much dead most days other than on matchday, but still a decent stop off point for a few mid week pints. I worked there for about 5 or so shifts earlier this year (always a match day) which was pretty hectic. Happier to be on the otherside of the bar!!

I.J Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Titish post imo. Theres some on the thread that apparently don't like groups of guys sitting drinking together. I wonder if the jug bar guys are viewed to be in a clique. Mind you, most of the jug bar crew don't post on JKB so I don't know if that counts as a clique. Or is it royalty. I'm confused. . The backroom clique could kick the jug bar clique's arse anyday, sonshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Think you have misunderstood the tone of my posts. My day was excellent, including my time in the Diggers (which despite being a little quiet, I happen to think is a good solid boozer), and I have already stated this a couple of posts previously. The whole point of the thread was for a discussion on the bar maids, although the slight aside I referred to, and reference to 'kickback royalty' was intended to be a joke and wasn't intended to cause any offence. I was simply making reference that someone I was with pointed out a poster from kickback, and someone else made reference to the fact that there are a few regular posters who sit in the backroom. That is all. No lengthy observations. In addition, aside from 3 or 4 posters, I personally wouldn't know what any one on this site looked like, including you. The signature pic doesn't make it easier either!! I`ve heard that some of them actually walk in and say "do you know who i am?" to any non-regs who nip in for a pint................

Generic Username Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I`ve heard that some of them actually walk in and say "do you know who i am?" to any non-regs who nip in for a pint................ That's certainly what I do anyway. I'd be absolutely mortified if someone came into my local and didn't know who I was or that I posted on here. Life just wouldn't be worth living...

I appreciate you sticking up for your pal which is great and all that but I had already said my last words on this before you felt the need to come wading in. Peckhamjambo, in my opinion, made some pretty snide, and at times fabricated comments, which is actually fine by me. I'm just choosing to defend myself, that's all. I'm not even that bothered about it but I'm quite enjoying the 'banter', as he'd call it. I've been called a lot worse on Hibs.net. I'm also more than happy just to leave it now that I've said my piece. Buffalo Bill . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemclaren Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 If I'm in the jug bar, it's royalty. If I'm in the backroom, it's royalty there. in all seriousness, I always find folk to be friendly and welcoming, regardless of where in the pub they happen to be sitting or whether they happen to be on kickback or not. I suppose it's just like royalty not to recognise ordinary people..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun.lawson Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Question. Do good pubs have an unofficial but very real "attractiveness quotient" barmaids have to pass in order to be employed? It often seems that way to me... Just as there's an international sixth form college near where I used to live in Oxford where I swear the same quotient applied to the impossibly gorgeous Eastern European female students there...

Unlike most of the dugs on heat in this thread, I couldn't really give a toss what a barmaid (or barman) looks like.

Here are my needs in a barperson: A) Able to pour a pint Able to do it quickly I'm a fussy b******, me. Whereas my needs are: a) Able to pour a pint of Diet Coke Able to do it quickly If they look nice though, that's always a bonus. With regard to which, if anyone's ever in the area, I heartily recommend Jude the Obscure in Jericho, just outside Oxford. One of the barmaids is English, seems to spend her entire life in there, and is cute, but (er, I mean and) slutty looking. Another is Eastern European, and is just incredible.

topcat Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 next to the bridge? I'm sure I was in there after the 98 cup win, decent pub from what I remember Every pub in town would have been brilliant that night! (With the possible exception of the Hypodermic and Firkin in Lochend). On the back of that cup final even the cooking lager in the Mercat tasted like Nectar fresh from Olympus with extra bubbles. Similarly as with everything else in the world the Bar staff in the diggers are always far better looking after a big win for Hearts. The speccy one becomes the sophisticated, intellectual one The one with the big arse becomes the one with the impressive cleavage The skinny one becomes the svelte, elegant one The lanky one becomes the leggy one Eric seems to assume a certain likeness to Cary Grant etc... P.S. You could tell Dalry was becoming gentrified when they knocked down the Clock Inn to build a Lidl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
