A year ago for late summer bank holiday weekend, it was 2 nights in Monmouth. This year, it’s 3 nights in Hereford. It’s been such a Year. Mostly light on the journey up and the transcription was a little off. Good Beanoing Times are back.

20221017 mb11 Day 02 Wrap
It used to a Full English was an essential part of a Mini Beano. Lately I have flip flopped over them. There’s nothing wrong with them but sometimes I just don’t fancy them. By the way, Premier Inn seem to have got rid of their conveyor belt toasters. Standard toasters are now in. My Taxi Driver is saying £2.00 a litre for Diesel at Christmas. I fear he is correct. Mornings in Spoons, Oldies getting together and discussing the World. The Price Freeze on Fine Ales is reversed. Mayorships gained at both The Foley Hotel and Weavers Real Ale House. Taxi back.
The mb11 Journal – Malvern October 2022
Various odds from this Autumn mini beano. Thoughts, tech, beer and food. Casual and unrehearsed.
£2.00 For Christmas
A Full English, then a 360 video outside the Malvern Premier in. I got a Taxi and it was so much easier. My driver is saying £2.00 a litre for Diesel at Christmas. I think he may be correct. The Alcohol Duty freeze has been scrapped but the mainstream media are not saying when it will be implemented. Two new Mayorships in a day. And Untappd stats.
20221016 mb11 Day 01 Wrap
It’s good driving at dawn when the roads are quiet, the odd spot of mist too. The M50 and DH Unplugged. Then cross country and the roads became narrower and narrower. The Premier Inn looks nice but it is a 45 minute walk away from Spoons. Thinking taxi. Spoons, The Foley Arms is a Hotel and has blisteringly fast FTTC. Maybe stay there next time? The Beer Fest continues. The Weavers Real Ale House, cask, keg, fridge and fast FTTC.
DT: Sunday Updates
Long And Hilly
A later but light start, park up and find the Foley Arms. I did that but it was a 45 minute walk from the Premier Inn and it was mostly uphill. The Foley Arms is a Spoons Hotel, note for Future. Really busy, awesome staff. Festival Ales still in excellent condition. Moving on to The Weavers Real Ale House, just around the corner from the Foley Arms. Cask, Keg, Cans and very fast FTTC WiFi.
20221016 Prelude mb11 Malvern Oct 22
A new place, Great Malvern and a relaxed Sunday journey up. A 90 minute journey up and a Premier Inn just on the edge of town. Late start, mostly travelling in the light. Aiming for a Gentle Beano. Update, 45 minute work from the Premier Inn to Spoons. Getting a taxi tomorrow.
