2021 – The Year Ahead
Covid will still be the big thing as in 2020 but with vaccines
Vaccine rollout will be slower than hoped for
Lockdowns will continue for far longer than expected
The Welsh Government elections in May will leave Wales even more fragmented
Wet led Pubs will take a battering
More Breweries will close
There will be more civil disobedience
New iPad Pros, Air Trackers and finally a new Apple TV
Windows Update process will still be poor
By Q3 all phones will be 5G capable
Apple will announce a M2 SOC
Podcasts will be even bigger, Amazon just bought Wondery
Stay-cations will be even bigger post Brexit and Covid
Cardiff City will still struggle

It Ended With The Blues

So the pubs close at 18:00 on Friday (mostly) without a vote and ignoring the science. Safer in the pub than in work.  Prebooked into Bubs with a sour tap takeover from Cascade Brewing (Oregon). So Costa, with points. The Central Bar with a Scottish Cask Ale. Poundland for cheap Christmas lights. The Head of Steam for a live Untappd Sherbet. Then Bubs, where Stevie Ray Vaughan was playing when I arrived.
Superb, safe afternoon with a little Classic Rock as well. Probably the last Emergency Beano of 2020. Rained.

Beer and Genius

There was rain, lots of rain. A RTA on the way to the Station and a Coffee and a Bacon Roll in Costa. The Central Bar for The Saturday Wrap. Then off to the Apple Store. Cardiff rather packed with Christmas Shopper. Also packed with Rugby Fans. Managed to get into The Old Arcade where I was informed there wasn’t Cask Brains Dark since the first Lockdown.
And next door into Bubs Cardiff. A prebooked three hour slot and some awesome ales. Web App to the fore. I wonder how the non announcement, announcement will affect them.
