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.

Virtual WhatsApp Beanoing

A day of two Spoons, lots of coffee, and a virtual WhatsApp team meeting. I really do work with some exceptional people.

In the afternoon, the Barley Mow, a Bristol Beer Factory pub. Lots of cask and keg, some exceptional beers. Wow, this is turning into a magnificent Beano.

Quality Rolls and Crisps

October 2021. The last time I was in Bristol. Why did it take me so long to return? It has been a great day. New pubs, cheese and onion rolls, spring onion crisps, beef and onion crisps, and Three UK providing great bandwidth. What a cracking day.

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.
