mb04 2026 Unplugged

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.

What happened on the second day of mb04 2026

It’s the little things, like 100 extra loyalty points if you don’t have your room cleaned. That will do for me.

The Knights Templar and the Commercial Rooms, and in the Commercial Rooms, virtual WhatsApp breakfast. There was the World Cup draw sweepstake, and coming out of the Commercial Rooms, I saw an air raid shelter tour. Went to the Barley Mow, and Gemini went down worldwide. You can’t trust these things; however, a blackberry raspberry grape Berliner Weisse—that’s what it’s all about.

Beers Of The Beano – Wednesday 10 June 2026

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.

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.

Wind Down Sunday

So the Spoons website said it was open at 06:30 but it actually wasn’t open until 08:00. Who knows with the Rhona. It 07:30 it was closed, however the WiFi reached out into the Beer garden. And testing of PIA with the Cloud has been successful so far. Turns out the bar at The Knights Templar opens at 08:00.

Moor Beer is closed on a Sunday, a Creepy Crawley got in my and I ripped my contact lens getting it out. I am making new plans like the wind. Raining.

So I went to LHG and had two, including one with Kveik Yeast. I pushed off when it filled out. I tried looking in The Barley Mow but that was full to the rafters. There mb05 ended.

Lazy Friday Pubbing

Walking along the river bank just before dawn, it’s why Bristol in Autumn is a quality Beano. Coinbase gave me $6.00 USD worth of new Crypto. I ping PIA Support with my iOS issue. I sign up for Worldcoin and another 7 Festival Ales are in the bag, however not all of them are uniques.

Chief said try the Cornubia and I did. What a cracking pub, a return visit is on the cards. Then onto the Barley Mow, the Bristol Beer Factory’s home Pub and what a cracking Pub. Bristol is also an Electric Scooter City.
