Garden – September 2019
The middle of the month had a week of Full On Indian Summer and it was all rather good. Strawberries, lettuce, tomatoes and onions all fro the garden. But since then it has rained and rained with the lettuce pot flooding. A quick in and out to get the video before the rains started again. Clearing the weeds and digging the left over potatoes start next week/month.
Replacement Can Half Saturday
The Indian Summer has gone, it’s getting dark in the mornings and the rain, well the rain, it doesn’t stop. Also as it’s the end of the month, times are getting hard. So it’s only a half day in Caerphilly and an emergency Autumn haircut. The replacement for the Sixpoint cans have arrived in Wetherspoons. One from BrewDog and the other from Oakham Ales. They are not bad but I preferred the Sixpoint Ales. It was a Cloud Burst day and I was home for One.
A week of Buggy Software and Weather Warnings
Saturday Wrap – 28 September 2019
The Indian Summer has ended and it’s been a week of wind, rain and weather warnings. A sweet Pixel 3a Android 10 upgrade. Buggy Android, Windows, iOS and iPadOS software this week and why software companies should concentrate more on quality than quantity of software. The Rugby World Cup 2019 and it’s effect on Pubs and beer. Live from The Malcolm Uphill, Caerphilly #SaturdayWrap
The International Rainbow Project 2019
The last Beer House Beano of Summer or Indian Summer 2019 #mb13. A dark journey in, cool to start and then it got up to 24c, the Beer House Front Door was wide open. The star of the day was The International Rainbow Project 2019. UK and USA brewers producing some wonderful ales and the pump clips are all the colours of the rainbow. Going to put that down for a revisit next day. Good times that pass very quickly. Hello Autumn with your Yellow Rain Warning.
Software Updates and Pre Booking
Saturday Wrap – 21 September 2019
#mb13 and a Pre Booked Hereford Beer House at 10:00. A sweet Pixel 3a Android 10 upgrade. Why I’m skipping iOS 13.0 and Apple are turning in Microsoft with point zero releases. Micro Pubs, why they are disparate and niche and wonderful. Live from Costa Coffee, Hereford #Saturdaywrap
The Yellowhammer and Slofie Edition
Saturday Wrap – 14 September 2019
Trying not to turn this into this week in moaning but failing (yet again). Far more, even more politics. The annual Apple iPhone reality distortion field. Services first, slightly Pixel 3a market segmentation and prices and no 5G. The end of Bengali and Lo-Res in the Tumble and lots of disparate September weather. Live from The Bears Head, Penarth #Saturdaywrap
A Sporting Belgian
Autumn (The Fall) hit’s the beautiful Lower Rhymney Valley with only the first day as an Indian Summer. Cardiff where only Wetherspoons have sensible opening times (says me). Ending up in The Head of Steam where the live Untappd feed is only upstairs now. Belgian low alcohol ales and it is as good as the full fat. Power and USB sockets all over. It didn’t rain.
This Week in Westminster Spoons
Saturday Wrap – 07 September 2019
Trying not to turn this into this week in moaning but failing. Even more lots of politics. The Palace of Westminster turned into a Wetherspoons, 20 off a pint of Ruddles, Shappers in a upstairs toilet and some Westminster weather and beer reviews. And where exactly is Android 10 anyway. And yes only one day of an Indian Summer
