Safer In The Lion
Train delays that this time did not work in my favour. Lot’s of weather but relatively mild for November. You can’t beat a Costa Coffee Bacon roll and that plus a Cappuccino is a great start to the day. Another Spoons, another sign in. NHS or fill it in yourself, I choose the later. The rest was app based. Almost came away with a raffle ticket for a Big, Big Ted but didn’t.
Off to the best back street boozer I know. The Golden Lion in Glebe Street. Sign yourself in time. I actuality drank a lager but in my defense it was rather Germanic. Elsewhere, unforeseen circumstances.
Red Sky and Email Bookings
Signalling problems then led to me a chancing a train I thought I wasn’t going to get. Lots of red sky in the morning and everyone was wearing a mask. First Coffee and Bacon Roll at Costa since I had the car serviced back in August. Lovely aromas. The Gatekeeper didn’t seem to have much of anything in terms of drinks, probably worried about another Fire Break. Also the same issue with the app as in The Queens Hotel. Still nice and relaxing.
Dropped a booking email to Bubs (ex Beelzebubs, ex Small Bar) to book a table for 12:00. I was there on the dot. Very well run, very secure and an awesome range of beers. must return. Pity about the rain.

Garden – September 2020
The Summer was odd but with September we have Autumn and Autumn is as it should be. Much cooler nights which mean that the bush Tomatoes that have died back. More rain and the odd Indian Summer day. I’ve caught up with mowing the lawn but it still needs feeding. Lots of Cucumbers and the excess Blue Danubes from last year need lifting. Summer Onions are on order and will arrive later this month. Already planning 2021 gardening.

Go Early and Avoid The Queues
The first Emergency Beano since the lockdown. It’s a Thursday so it’s a #CurryThursday and it drizzled. Just to Caerphilly as it’s still a bit tricky on the buses, however everyone wore masks. First in the Malcolm Uphill and the cask was all Welsh despite being somewhat limited. There were still queues mid morning to get into the Malcolm Uphill despite it not being a Rishi day. Filled my boots with a Jalfrezi and then caught the bus home. It was still drizzling then.
