When even if it rains, pre departure, you get the watering can out. My make your own Coffee stop off point was raining. The rain stopped and the tyre pressure warning light came on. They looked OK but I topped them off. Tesco for a Full Mid Welsh. Parked up in The Elephant and Castle, Fine Ales followed.

On to The Sportsman, a CAMRA / Wye Valley pub. Well kept ales and then the find of the day, The Brew Hut. Coffee, Cask, Kegs and Cans. Very friendly and very fast WiFi upload. Ales from 09:00, closed Mondays. Then my Anker charger failed.

Contactless Sunday

Pressure Warning Instead Of Coffee

It rained pre departure, it rained during the journey up and at my planned stop off to make some Coffee. When it stopped raining the tyre pressure warning came on. I stopped, the tyres were fine but it topped them off anyway. Newtown’s Tesco for a Full Mid Welsh. Parked up at the Elephant and Castle and into the local Spoons where I started on the Purple Moose.

ADSL #+ WiFi with a rather slow upload. Thinks improved greatly in the Sportsman but they have a limited cask selection of only two Wye Valley ales. However, they did have Salopian Beer Mats. The find of the day was the The Brew Hut, Coffee, Cask, Keg, Cans and Bottles. Fast uploads also. On the must revisit list, now.

The Elephant minus The Castle
