The cold, Good Friday mini beano but at least the journey up was light, even if the clocks go forward over the weekend.  Quicktime Player and a 1.45GB short, well that’s not good.  

The journey up was much lighter than I thought it would be but not forecast, it rained all the way. With some very heavy rain on the M5. Costa’s website didn’t say that it would have later opening on Good Friday. Sainsbury’s opened as normal on a Friday and its website confirmed that.

Breakfast was in Spoons, not Costa therefore and it was cheaper too.  Gloucester Brewery, The Pelican and The Hop kettle throughout the weekend.

Rainy Good Friday

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. 

Hard at it

Huh, Spring Only Lasted One Day

You can’t beat quality comments. The rain is back, so I got slightly wet going to get my Premier Inn all you can eat breakfast. New craft cans in Spoons and it’s a corker. Listening to ATP. And another new craft can.

More gentle rain on the way to The Siren’s Calling. Mild and ESB to start both on Cask. Sometimes Old School is the way forward. Oh yes, Cantillon Gueuze as well.

Going out with a bang

The half and half Mini Beano. I’ve stayed in The Premier Inn a number of times before but never actually visit the place. However, it now has a Bristol CAMRA Pub of the year and a Spoons. So a’Beanoing I will go. And, to start, I think Spring has finally arrived. Spoons is The Posset Cup and The CAMRA Pub is The Siren’s Calling. Turned out that as soon as it got light, it got very, very foggy.
