Fantastic rest and food stops

    Not sure if a thread already exists for such a thing and normally I wouldn't really bother except the staff here were fantastic..... anyway :

    A couple of days ago I passed through Ballycumber in Offaly. It's one of those small villages you don't hear much of (clarification, I never hear much of).

    I went into a place called Ennis XL (has a post office attached) and ordered a Chicken Roll and sausage rolls from the Deli counter and got a coffee from the machine. I was going to eat it outside.The lady behind the counter instead sent me into the Bar next door (Gussies Bar ?) and said she would drop in the food. It was raining for a few hours so a warm stove was appreciated and the roll and sausage rolls arrived and I tucked in. A few more riders arrived and were given the same treatment. The Tea was flying at them. The barman refilled my water bottles and even asked me did I want a bit of ice in them then he realised it was cold outside. Anyway food shovelled in and rewarmed 10 mins later I was back on the bike all jolly again.

    So that's my report on Ennis XL (and Gussies ? bar). I'll be back again anytime I pass after such helpfulness (sometimes ya get a look like "oh no, not another of these wet cold clowns dripping everywhere, go on, you know the look.....so it was particularly nice to get such a welcome there).:)
