Indian Summer – Last Day

22/09/2012 Leave a comment
Cold, dry and still (as in Bedwas General Store). Extra air in the tyres ready for #PMI912. On the bus to Newport. Another Tiny Rebel day but first a visit to the Tom Toya Lewis (Wetherspoons).

 

 

You come all the way to Newport and you get Caerphilly ales. Not that this is a problem, at all!

The bar opens at 09:00 and I'm hard at it at 09:01. However request in to serve from 08:00 as per Caerphilly.

 

Now this is good but I should really be at the cheese festival at Cardiff Castle.

And this a rather good smokey ale.

Happy end of Indian Summer days.
