mb03 2024 Unplugged
Well, the change of hardware worked even if the result is slight soft. However, this time I will be able to generate subtitles.
The on check in video is missing, if for no other reason than I forgot. Updates on the weather and The Orange Tree and Beer in Hand.
Post Hereford Beer House Saturday afternoon and pre departure from Hereford. A Great Beano.
20240224 mb03 Day 02 Wrap
Looking out of the window in the Travelodge to see the cars in the carpark covered in frost. Not a good sight. Standard Costa breakfast. Test Transcriptionist in The Kings Fee and boy does it have an odd UI. The Beer House was full of Cloudwater Birthday Ales and newly arrived merch. I purchased both. A cold and frosty departure.
The New Merch
A cold and frosty start to the day. Costa and then The Kings Fee. Big Queues and a fallback to Doombar. The Beer House and lots of new Merch and Cloudwater 9th Birthday Ales. I certainly need more days in Hereford in 2024.
20240223 mb03 Day 01 Wrap
Starting with an icy roof on the car, then mist in Trethomas and finally semi sunny entering Hereford. As I got out of the car in the Travelodge carpark it started to rain. Sainsbury, then a Coffee in Costa and the standard Cask Ale and filled rolls in The Orange Tree.
It got very Pubby in the Beer In Hand with experimental hops and lots of dogs. I need to visit it more.
Snow On The Hills
But nothing on the roads, as it should be. Of course, no rain until I got out of the car in Hereford. Extended lunch in The Orange Tree. Casks Ales and filled rolls. Check in to the Travelodge and then it’s over to the Beer in Hand. For the first time since August 2021. A very Pubby and Dog friendly Micro and only really a Micro because of the Micro opening hours.
20240223 Prelude mb03 Hereford February 24
In a week of rain and now rain and cold. It’s only Beanos that keep me going. The A40 eastbound has now reopened, albeit just one lane. A later start means, travelling in daylight and not really missing out on much.
Big roadworks in Monmouth but no one seemed to be working. Dry until I parked up in Hereford and then it started to rain. Sainsbury, Costa and Cask Ale and Filled Rolls in The Orange Tree. All going to plan.
