The mb13 Journal – Hereford November 2022
This really is a lot of odds and stuff. Christmas lights, me burbling on, beer, chips and festive lights. The true spirit of Beanoing.
20221127 mb13 Day 03 Wrap
2 for 2 as both contact lenses go straight in. Tweets of German Smoke Biers get you great Twitter stats. Another sign of Christmas, the 2023 Radio Users guide is out and now ordered. No mince pies in The Kings Fee, however a Manager’s Special saves the day. The TV remote control for the TV opposite me goes missing, so it’s the World Cup on the iPad Mini. Tesco you need more people on the tills and self service is unreliable. Big German, Malty start in the Hereford Beer House. And then it’s over.
The Missing Mince Pie
DH Unplugged and not quite the Lazy Beano model, despite it being a later start due to it being Sunday. So the start is in The Kings Fee. Orange Juice but a World Shortage of Mince Pies. Also they have lost the remote control for the TV opposite me, so I’m watching the World Cup on my iPad Mini. The Hereford Beer House, big German, Malty start.

Sometimes you just can’t get a contact lens in. Other days both go straight in. Bought some second class stamps, 68p each. Yes, No. Used my Bean for a free Coffee in Costa. The tree now has lights. Have Spoons turned their heating off? Hazy Jane when the cask is meh! The Imperial, difficult to login to WiFi. Need to be back to the Hereford Beer House more often. Big Twitter Rauchbier hit.
2nd Class Stamps
A rainy Saturday (again) but not as bad as back home. Aren’t 2nd class stamps expensive? When all else fails on the cask ale front it’s time for Hazy Jane. The Imperial, reduced cask but your basic sports bar plus food. Why did I leave it so long before returning to The Hereford Beer House. Jonny showed up as well. Rauchbiers.
England and Wales
Starting without my wake up coffee is mainly a sign of my age. However, Pro Plus a half hour before I leave to keep me on my A game. Costa then the Kings Fee for the Wales match. West Midlands craft cans but sadly no Luxury, Festive Mince Pies. Wales were poor and Iran deserved to win. The Orange Tree is a must visit and the £2.50 cobs are excellent. I’m supporting Senegal now.
20221125 Prelude mb13 Hereford Nov 22
This is the Prelude for #mb13, which has its own Pre Prelude. This time I am the right way round. I’m back in Hereford for the first time since June and it’s been far too long. Wales v Iran and 10:00 and there will be lots of Fine Ales. Semi Festive too 🎄
Platty Joobs
So it hammered down overnight. It’s a grey and showery day. Yesterday’s Beer Video failed at 97%, so I redid it in 1080p and re-uploaded it. Ordered a new Logitech Mini Keyboard, for delivery on Monday to the Premier Inn in Gloucester. That is becoming an Apple Announcement thing. The Kings Fee for a Hazy Jane start to the day. Jonny showed up at the Hereford Beer House for a Fine Ale and Beer discussion. Me, lots of Fine Ales before the Wales match.
20220604 mb07 Day 01 Wrap
A dark but light start to the journey. Rain from Monmouth to Hereford. Using the app to get a free large Cappuccino in Costa. The Kings Fee was covered in Brenda Bunting and it was packed. More great Beer Learning in The Hereford Beer House. Watching the weather. Heavy overnight rain.
20220501 mb06 Day 02 Wrap
It rained, it mostly rained all day. It took me half an hour to get my right contact lens in. Detail is going to need an M2, back to Logi Capture. Sunday morning in The Kings Fee with a Full English. Tesco Meal Deal Crisp shortage. The Imperial has been done out. Watched the Scottish Old Firm Derby. It’s like the Rhona has gone. Hereford Beer House German Lager tasting was excellent. Forgot to pay for my previous drinks.
