heppers Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I was in Swindon and decided to pop into the Dolphin which is a pub run by Phil King. I searched on my phone and downloaded a map. Good start. I walked a mile on the right road but wrong direction. Got back on track and walked about 3 miles to arrive at Dolphin Cottage. Wrong place. Called a taxi and they took me there. £9.60 Walked in pub. Bit of a dump. Picture of Hillsborough on the wall. Bought a pint off an old bird. She did not have many teeth. Drank my pint. Phil King was not there. Got a taxi back to the hotel. Can't remember how much it cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 We called in and met Phil during last season's game at Swindon. Unsurprisingly the place was full of Wednesdayites, managed a few minutes chatting to him, he's a top bloke. Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Unsurprisingly the place was full of Wednesdayites, managed a few minutes chatting to him, he's a top bloke. Still looked proud as punch with his Wembley winners Medal that day as he chatted to Owls fans, as you say top bloke.

heppers Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Did you have a rustlers burger then go on Camfrog? No. I purchased a tuna and onion roll off the gummy bird. Cost £1. It was quite filling and represented good value but the smell was rank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppers Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 What was the tuna and onion roll like? It was nice. But somewhat tainted both by my disappointment and by the lady with no teeth who served me. There was a nagging concern that she had made it. Anyway, i thought "only a quid, fill yer boots" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US_Owl Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I have it on the highest authority that the lady in the Dolphin mkaes the tuna and onion rolls by mashing up the tuna and onion in her almost toothless maw, before depositing it into said rolls like a mummy bird to a baby bird. Scrumptious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Kingy was compere at an evening with him, Waddle and Hirsty at The Blue Ball a few years ago. Great value. Had us all singing Atkinsons Barmy Army. Then at the end of the night, when we'd all had a few, we sang it again. This time though I had Kingy and Hirsty either side of me, our arms round each others shoulders, jumping about. Never thought I'd ever do owt like that.
