Rain and Humidity

Generated some AI Rock Music from me mubert .com and order an Apollo (app) T-shirt from the states. Hats off to Premier Inn for their all you can eat Full English. Left Portishead just after 09:00 and the traffic was flowing freely. It started to rain just outside Hereford. Filled up at Sainsbury’s at 137.9 a litre. Parked up and went to the Imperial, which was closed due to maintenance.

Ended up in The Herdsman where they had no Real Ale, ended up with Worthington Cream Flow, which at least was cool. The Orange Tree did have Real Ales, twelve lines and of course Filled Rolls.

With added aircon

An optimised departure but this time it’s for the opening of Tesco in Trethomas (07:00). The fact that it will be light then is a pleasant addition. Back to Weston Super Mare for the first time since 2017. However, this time there is only one Spoons. Park up in the multi storey and then it’s Costa and Spoons.

Catching up on Beanos in Weston Super Mare

Back in the Beano saddle for 2023. The Beer House is only open on the Saturday (10% off for tagging them on Social Media), so it’s more of the Beer In Hand and The Orange Tree. Lots of Daily Tech News Show #CES2023 coverage on the way up.

Nice lot of space in the Carpark

And just across the road, a sign that I shouldn’t have filled up before I left. 2023 is going to be one of those years.

However 149.9 a litre in Pontypridd

Things started to look up when I was given an app voucher for a hot drink in Costa Coffee tomorrow.

I’m the Mayor too

The Town Centre and on the way to The Kings Fee (Wetherspoon)

99p a Pint for Guest Ales. Helps with the Post Christmas spending.

Not Here in Wales

Moving on to The Orange Tree, in need of Cobs.

A lot of history around
A Great Pubby Pub

Might, actually completely over did it with two cobs.

Cheese and Onion & Ham Salad

Opens at 12:00, seven days a week. Classic Pub.

England and Wales

Starting without my wake up coffee is mainly a sign of my age. However, Pro Plus a half hour before I leave to keep me on my A game. Costa then the Kings Fee for the Wales match. West Midlands craft cans but sadly no Luxury, Festive Mince Pies. Wales were poor and Iran deserved to win. The Orange Tree is a must visit and the £2.50 cobs are excellent. I’m supporting Senegal now.

Mostly about the Wales result
