Bill S from Adelaide Folklore: Odd pub names (412* d) RE: Folklore: Odd pub names 30 Oct 07

I used to drink in the Same Yet near Middleton, the sign painter came to do a repaint and the landlord, when asked what should be painted said "Same yet" ie same again.
Amazed no-one has mentioned the Piddle Inn or StPeters Finger in Dorset.
We have the Elephant and Wheelbarrow and a couple of Moon and Sixpences in Perth as well as a Durty Nelly's and other gimmicky stuff.
Pity about the Smiths Arms in Godmanstone, Herga danced there in 75. We sang the inevitable Dorset is Beautiful and everyone in the place added a couple of verses. Apparently the license was granted on the spot by the King when he stopped at the Smithy and asked for a beer, to be told that there was no license to sell beer.
