mb04 2026 Unplugged

14/06/2026 Leave a comment

Badly lit, poor sound. June 2026 3 nights in Bristol. Picture in Picture and settling on iMovie. The only thing that didn’t happen was the Full English on the last day in The Knights Templar.

What happened on the third day of mb04 2026

Was it summer, or did it rain and blow a gale? I think it was the latter. Anyway, Commercial Rooms—the back is rather good, but it can get really busy, so don’t get locked in there.

I snagged some new macOS 27 wallpaper; I really liked it. I must return to Little Martha Brewery, and Wiper and True as well. Little Martha, rabbit-related. FIFA servers were glitching ahead of the World Cup. And in Wiper and True, it was full of blokes needing a pint after work. Can’t blame them, really. They were playing “Goodbye Stranger” by Supertramp in the background. Wonderful.

The Two Taprooms Afternoon

The Great British Summer. Basically wind and rain. However, the Knights Templar and the Commercial Rooms—you can’t beat Spoons.

The afternoon at Little Martha Brewery is a must-return. And Unwyn’s Brewery is also a must-return, less than five minutes away from the Ibis, and both almost next to each other. Quality Beanoing, yet again.

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.

So PIA got back to me with mixed results. The Knights Templar opens at 08:00 on a Sunday but the bar opens at that time. Live Bug in the eye and broken contact. Moor Beer Closed. Kveik. A review of the Firebreak and Wales wants more than Plan B. Christmas shaky.
