Welcome to 'The Brooncoat Arms’ - a wee haven for Scottish, U.K and International Browncoats alike!

This is our bar. (By ‘our’, I‘m referring to my guid friends NavySeils and MalReynolds88. They are the co founders of this fine establishment.)

Take a seat. Enjoy the atmosphere. Talk about anything and everything – from movies, tv, fashion, sports or music, or simply chill out. Talk about Firefly/Serenity and your obsessions with certain cast members too!

In celebration, let’s raise a glass of fine Mudder’s milk! The doors are now officially open for business.

Slainte!

- Cos.

Wait, by "International Browncoats" do you mean from any nation, or any nation except the US?
Just asking for some clarification.

Wacky fun!

Nope. No need. Come inside! This place is what you make it.

Everyone's welcome here! All nationalities, genders and orientations.

There's a games room somewhere, and a swimming pool out back too. This is your haven.

Cool, the only way I could think of was start spouting lots of choice swear words and 'jam' Which is never a good way to impress new friends.

Did I hear someone mention a pool?

Come in to a real scottish bar trying to prove your englishness may well get you more than a few unpleasant replies, but luckily that won't happen in this place.

Don't squat with your spurs on.


A moderately tall, semi-muscular man with small scar on his chin stomps into the bar. He slumps down on stool and slips his brown coat off of his shoulders. "Gimme a shot of scotch and a milk chaser."

aye, which is why i'd never do it!

but I misread the opening post, missed the 'internationl' bit, which is why I thought I may have had to prove I qualified.

I actually like scottish pubs from what I've heard of them, English pubs are all drinking and desperate attempts at pulling, apparently Scottish pubs (according to rumor and hearsay) are that plus music and arguing.

Two of my favorite pastimes.

All the ones I go in have music and arguing too, so I guess you heard right. Never the right music for me though, if I was ever to open a pub I'd make sure there was at least a little metallica. Aye the music in the brooncoats bar would be selected by the punters who walk in, not whatever craps floating around the charts at the moment.

oh, bit slow today.

Ok, Taking an awful lot of liberties I declare it Happy Hour! With a mix your own cocktails, and a competion for the silliest name.


I submit the 'Put it Down Grandma!'

Blue Curacao
(huge quantities of)White Rum
Fresh mango or orange juice
Lemonade

(surprisingly pleasant, and Bright Green! -we probably unconciously stole the recipie, but hey)

Is anybody watching that Andromeda Strain (?) t.v. program that they are advertising at the moment. It appears to have Jane Asher in it. Just wondering if anyone knows if its any good?

will probably watch it anyway mind.

Now that's an offer I can hardly refuse!! (*waggles eye-brows suggestively in terry Thomas-esque manner (although probably more like Sid James, now I come to think of it)*)

The nice thing about this pub is that the thread is active during the day - when all our US cousins are tucked up like baby bunnies in their bunks...

Normally I find my self posting on the barn door after the horse's bolted, so to speak...

Some olives would be nice...

Am trying to get up the courage to go outside after an odd weekend watching the 20 or so hours that make up the O.C. first series - ohhh the drama!!!

Am currently sitting here daydreaming that my performance would be very much akin to Veronica Mars (see Drinking the Kool-Aid season 1, episode 9) although I think my hopes of being in any way that damn cool are severely limited …

Yep, you can call me DTH. As long as it doesn't double as an acronym for something naughty.

What was I planning on singing? "I'm Under your Spell" probably. And anything else from Once More with Feeling that I could get away with. Must pay homage to the supreme Master. Plus I think he gets royalties.

*Zoot considers dirty acronyms*

Dirty torrid heaving?

Dreadful turd heaps?

Daemon tasting hurts?

We could do the Anya/ Xander duet if you like – then you can take the Anya part and I won’t have to sing as much … though I don't have a penis so verisimilitude could be an issue ....

I know it pretty well since it was all I had in my CD player for about 18 months …
