00:00Laura, congratulations. This has been in your plans from the very start. How do you feel today to have achieved it?
00:06A little bit overwhelmed, a little bit unbelievably grateful and I'm extremely, extremely proud of what we've achieved today.
00:13It's fantastic too for a moth and a Seán Donegal and a North West to have this facility. I'm sure that makes you very proud.
00:19Absolutely. I think any Seán himself kind of gets forgotten about, especially when you come to Mallhead and then people actually leave and go to the West of Donegal.
00:27So we're hoping that when people actually come here, they'll stay around and stay maybe the night and see other parts of the area.
00:34So, yeah, we hope people come and their bus loads, to be honest.
00:38Laura, I know you said that the Moth Liquor Company was inspired by your granddad and I saw that his tractor and all is on there now.
00:44How do you think he would feel about this today? What would he think?
00:46Oh, he'd love it. My mama probably wouldn't have approved, but he definitely would have been as proud as punch.
00:54So, yeah, he inspired me nearly 20 years ago, so a long way at last. So, yeah, it's really, really good.
