The extreme Dog Days of Summer and it starts with light rain and heavy rain is forecast from lunchtime. In the Malcolm Uphill, Caerphilly. Caerphilly has The Big Cheese and The Project has a Welsh 🏴 Beer Festival. Autumn 🍂 on Monday.

A late start and would The Bridge House be open again after yesterday’s burst pipe. It was and the Police were bringing a drunk in to get a Pint. He had Ruddles. Me, a fresh cask of Plum Porter was just going on. It was strangely more amplified that the last time I had it.

Some of the best Spoons are Spoons that leak and have cheap guest ales. The Tumble is one and the Bridge House has joined the clan. Gone Fishing is appropriate as I’m overlooking the River Avon. The wonderful Prince of Wales micro pub this afternoon.

The water meter leak is now going to fixed. I’m completely skint after getting my car (Marge) through it’s MOT and I’m listening to DTNS Briefing where I got a mention. Beer from good friends and raising the glass to Mr Kev. Enjoy life while you can.

A Saturday morning in The Malcolm Uphill before moving on to The Project. The weather is a little confused and I’m on the Röad Crëw Ale. All rather pleasant.

A different sort of prelude this week. I was in Aldi on Monday and saw their Hazy Jane knock off at £1.69 for a 440ml can. Purchased it and now doing a compare and contrast with the original. Prelude, Caerphilly, this afternoon.

Another hybrid Beano and it’s time to finish off the 4 for the price of 3 from Sainsbury’s. Starting with an updated version of Cheeky V from Tiny Rebel. Red, fruity and a touch sour. The Project in Caerphilly later.

A lie in and it’s already steaming hot. A day for cold beer and aircon. PM in The Project Caerphilly where maybe I’ll have a crisp Lager to start. Head full of The Foundation and Murderbot.
