Rain and German Lager
With some gentle overnight rain which will be good for the garden back home. Sometimes you can’t get your disposal contact lenses in. Sometimes you can’t get your MBP to play well with a piece of beta software. I need a M2 MBA. Spoons for a Full English. Imperial for out of the rain. Hereford Beer House for sours and a German Lager testing session. Somewhat excellent.

A frost start, via Twilight, Dawn and Mist to Hereford. Much colder in Hereford. A new Costa Coffee. The Kings Fee FTTC for the Prelude and The Saturday Wrap. Cask Ale helped too. The Hereford Beer House is now run by a Welshman, it’s good, it’s very good. Daisy The Cat rocks. Awesome Ales as ever.
The Joy of the Return
A frosty car roof and front wind screen, that’s how #mb06 started. Twilight, then dawn and some mist for the journey to Hereford. Hereford had more frost ands breakfast was in a new Costa Coffee. Coffee and a Bacon roll, of course. Recording and uploading video in The Kings Fee, while drinking cask ale. The Hereford Beer House is now run by a Welshman, still miss Jonny though. However it’s very good and I met Daisy the Cat.

Later opening Costa Coffee leads to Optimised departure. Always query changes. Planning in The Kings Fee. Nine weeks left for the current incarnation. The Grid and COP26. Swindon?
The GMT Mini Beano
Sometimes you just want to take it easy. Sometimes it’s just because you can. But mostly it’s what I do. Wales being not up to the job and making the most of Hereford while I can. The Kings Fee has FTTC and booths. Semi Optimised departure gave me a mostly light journey and 20 extra Nectar points in Sainsbury.
Nine weeks and a new, slightly different Hereford Beer House.

Brewing By The Railway
Grey but mild and only two spaces left in the Travelodge car park. Happy Costa Bacon and Coffee to start the day. The Kings Fee where they are testing the new Chicken menu. Different train apps and very different ways of working. However FTTC, so Winning there.
Of course the Transport for Wales Class 175 was late however the Ludlow Brewery is only 100 yards from the Station. Traditional in outlook, however Cask forward and with Derailed brewing as their Keg subsidiary.
Of course the train was late returning to Hereford. Checking into my overnighter and then did some work work. Back out to The Beer in Hand Hereford. Excellent beer retreat but needs WiFi and to open earlier. Well past my bed time.
#mb02 2021 Prelude
The end of August and the Bank Holiday weekend and I’m only on #mb02. Cooler morning but Summer is most certainly back. Hereford, Ludlow and Worcester and many Fine Ales. Grey but dry. It was an early morning yesterday.
