Hung on the outside door:

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Happened to us too. Dog was in the car. The owner invited the dog into the restaraunt for the night too. He was the hit of the party(he liked beer in a bowl).

i spoke this morning to a guy at the gym who went to ireland for the weekend and got stuck in the snowstorm...he said people were stuck in their houses for five days..

he also said in ireland they don’t plow or shovel anything...evidently if they don’t plow/shovel and someone slips or gets in an accident they cannot file suit because it is considered an act of God...if someone does shovel their walkway and a person slips and hurts themselves they can file suit because it is viewed the person who shoveled cause the circumstance...

Bloody lawyers...

Sheesh.

I’ve stayed at the “Admiral Fell Inn” before! I’m not a big Baltimore fan except for the Inn, Joseph Bank and the Inner Harbor. I was there in the winter as well. Great place to be in the cold!

[Albion Wilde]

What happened at the Lion’s Inn stays at the Lion’s Inn.

I’ll bet there was a fair bit of lyin’ going on, both during and after the lock-in at the Lion Inn.

After the Admiral fell in, you should have paid more attention to your step. < /s >

[Le Chien Rouge]

We were trapped in a Pub. We were hiding from zombies!!

[a fool in paradise]

All that could be heard was their cries for ‘elp. Whatever that is?

[alarm rider]

Really, and since there was snow around, as an American, your birthright to cold beer would have been a snap.

[BenLurkin]

Should be okay — so long as the toilets keep flushing.

[miss marmelstein]

Oh, how I loved that strip as a kid!

My friends George and Chris were trapped in Yorkshire last weekend. They finally got back to London; they thought the snow was beautiful and didn’t have too much trouble negotiating their way home.

Sounds like heaven to me !!!

[Texas Eagle]

Dammit! How come stuff like that never happens to me?!

[Texas Eagle]

...seven people were trapped inside a British pub for nine days by a ferocious snowstorm and 16-foot snow drifts.

The weird thing is the snow had melted after only two days.

[frithguild]

Sheesh, it's called a lock-in people.

I've never heard of a "lock-in people." Sounds kind of like jail. Those Brits sure are strange ones.

[Palladin]

Almost as funny as seven old ladies trapped in a lavatory—

(Couldn’t get out from Monday to Saturday.)
