With Sats and Sun in my Eyes
You wake up early and you get free Sats by listening to Podcasts on the Fountain app. Leaving just before official dawn and it’s pull the sun visor down as the May Sun is low in the sky. A chilly arrival at Gloucesater, check the car in and Coffee and a Bacon Roll in the rather expensive Costa Coffee. Wandering along the Canal and it’s into The Lord High Constable of England. Which Bespoke Brewing Ale should I have. Then a touch of BrewDog. Mastodon encouraged me to go to The Regal and then it was no Morris Dancing in the Turks Head. The Pelican was even faster WiFi and all Cask Ale.

Free Sats by listening to Podcasts on the Fountain App pre departure. A gentle drive up without the need for optimisation but with the sun visor down. Sunny but fresh on arrival and Coffee and a Bacon Roll in the now very expensive Costa Coffee. This is quality Beanoing.
Garden – May 2023
May started off with it being two to three weeks behind the normal growing season. Two varieties of Tomatoes, one of Peppers and one of Cucumbers were all planted on the indoor window sills. Bags for life over them to create a warmer, damper micro climate. So far only three pots have germinated. The rest of the growing was planting Potatoes, earthing up Potatoes and water Potatoes. They, however, are a striking success. Casablancas and Dersiree. The lawn after it’s seaweed feed and two mows, is looking much better, however, the reseeding, not so good. Onions of varies types are all growing well, as are the Radishes. Drought now.

Brew Monster – May 2023
The sun comes out, the temperature rises and Spring 2023 is really here. If I didn’t have a bus pass, I would have had a free bus journey to Caerphilly. Off to Brew Monster Tap House and watching the world via the mezzanine floor. Three uniques and an extra large T-shirt. Always worth a visit and great staff too.

The mb05 Journal – Portishead 2023
When it was dark, it was calm and clear. When it was light, it was foggy. Especially past Newport on the M4. Portishead is really rather nice and it has an iBis and Lidl in the same building. The Marina is really rather nice with the fog.
The Posset Cup and The Siren’s Calling. Both fine and just the places to muse about the world. Throw in a Premier Inn all your can eat Breakfast and you have a superb Beano. I need to go back and soon.
