S0113 O'Donoghues

A pub with a recent and very strange former name - "Thing Mote", a name referring to a yearly gathering to govern a town in times long past. This was a lot less crowded than the previous visit of the day and had extremely fast service - when you could find a barman, as the one upstairs was often away.

Decent pub in general. Doesn't currently count towards my stats though, as it isn't on the licence register* - when it reappears it'll be an instant win though, so was still worth visiting.

*as always, this doesn't mean it hasn't got a licence - Revenue emphasise that there are timing issues in relation to producing the file and it isn't always 100% accurate. I'd take an educated guess that about 2% of all premises don't appear in a given year's listings.

Post update March 2018: This has now appeared on the licence register on 1013043, so now counts towards statistics.
