The best Tweet figures ever and it was not really me. Another 2 years of Better Touch Tool. Coffee and Bacon. Creamflow Complaints. No in Europe? A warming Pallet fire.
Where’s The Nitrogen?
Lots of confused weather and punters at the bar at The Regal wondering why their Creamflow isn’t very creamy. Me, renewing software licenses and taking tech support calls. Also, the UK is in Europe if not in the EU. HMS Belfast and the great people and ales in the Pelican Inn.

The day when everything was optimised apart from Tesco checkouts and Costa Coffee being open. 5G and then a Bacon Butty in The Lord High Constable of England. Gloucester Brewery Warehouse 4. Training in how to use the self service tap. A great manager and today, The Pelican and a lot about the Tennis.

Then there was Storm Arwen and Costa was closed to walk ins due to staff shortages. It snowed while I was in the Regal, however the Saturday Wrap was not disrupted. The Pelican had it’s marquee blown away but the Fine Ales were unharmed. Til the next time.
Stormy Saturday Session
The wind and rain of Storm Arwen. Costa only doing drive throughs due to staff shortages. TFWRail shut down. The Regal in Gloucester still very festive and the home of The Saturday Wrap. Then it snowed. The wind was cutting but the real fire in The Pelican was warming. Mostly halves and I can’t wait for the next one.
For Saturday 27 November 2021
The Saturday Wrap for 27 November 2021. Mow lawn, Winter here, heating on, 21H2, Air, early morning Santa, Stubbed toe, Internet memes, mb08, bus disruption and Storm Arwen. #Gloucester #SaturdayWrap

An hour and a half sleep in. I get my last Bean to work. The Constable opens at 09:0. A new festive variant. A Cloudwater 10% to start and rather stormy.
A New Strain For Black Friday
Just in time for Christmas, a new strain of the Rhona. I use the last of my saved Costa Coffee Beans. The Bar in The Lord High Constable now opens at 09:00 instead of 10:00, very positive. Gentle Dogs, lots of people and Pink Floyd on YouTube. A massive Mini Beano.

As cold and clear as you can get without frost. High contrast and semi optimised journey. The Costa app needs the Beans redemption redesigned. Nectar points at Sainsbury. Black Friday App Store deals. The Gorilla in a Santa hat. Pelican Internet down, tab in operation.
High Contrast Motorways
When clear skies, high pressure weather and 50 mile an hour speed limits make your outbound Beano journey much easier. An extra five Nectar points at Sainsbury. Why the Costa App needs lots of work. The Gorilla in The Regal in a Santa App. App Store Black Friday deals. The wind is cutting but the Sun is warm. Excellent Ales in The Pelican Inn but the Internet was down for the first two hours. Lovely Pub, lover Pub Fire.
