Cinnamon and Full English
A Saturday morning Full English for the first time in ages in the Malcolm Uphill at table 30, my coal mine booth. Then I moved on to the Lock-Up bottle shop, but it was closed. It did eventually open up; however, no video because of lots of loud music in the background, and I didn’t want a takedown.
In the afternoon, the Project in Caerphilly. A Welsh cake, lots of Fine Ales, wonderful air conditioning, and Cinnamon. Who’d have thought? Lots of Cinnamon.

White Wellie Saturday
A Saturday morning Beano and I was flagging. Whether it was the World Cup or whether it was mb04, I don’t really know, but by the middle of the afternoon, I was sleepy. It wasn’t just the finals. However, standouts were White Wellie from Weird Dad and a tray of the finest Maris Piper chips from the Harbour Fish Bar.

The Two Taprooms Afternoon
The Great British Summer. Basically wind and rain. However, the Knights Templar and the Commercial Rooms—you can’t beat Spoons.
The afternoon at Little Martha Brewery is a must-return. And Unwyn’s Brewery is also a must-return, less than five minutes away from the Ibis, and both almost next to each other. Quality Beanoing, yet again.

The Project, Caerphilly, their birthday party. Lots of Vault City sours and, on the food front, barbecue chicken on skewers with dirty fries. The aircon was lovely. Hats off to The Project and Happy Birthday.
Beers Of The Beano – Saturday 16 May 2026
When May is rather wet and not very early summery, it’s time to revisit pubs that you haven’t been to since June 2021. The Rickards. What a great place that is. Twt Lol Lollfest glasses and Grey Trees beer. Then on to the Otley, where I got waved at. Still haven’t fixed the WiFi though, but the beers are really rather good. Nearly lost my bus pass as well.
