A sunny but fresh start to the day with a Premier Inn all you can eat Full English breakfast. Beer Blogging from The Regal. The Regal, The Turks Head and The Pelican all full of Gloucester Rugby Fans. Finishing the day with an Irish Apricot Sour.
Gloucester At Home
Fuelled up on a Premier Inn all you can eat Full English, I made my way to The Regal. Blogging and Beer drinking. It filled up with Gloucester Rugby Fans.
I wanted to go to The Turks Hurd but that was wall to wall with Gloucester Rugby Fans.
Luckily, I got to The Pelican before it too filled up with Gloucester Rugby Fans. I was stuck in the corner unable to get to the bar. However, it all ended with a wonderful Irish Apricot Sour.

Got those free Sats by listening to Podcasts on the Fountain. A light departure meant the sun in my eyes, visor down. Rather fresh on arrival and a non Premier Inn fire alarm going off. Costa Bacon Roll and Coffee are great but now hugely expensive. This makes the Premier Inn All You Can Eat Breakfast even better value. Watching a Spoons Barmaid refusing to serve a gentleman at 09:00 as he was already drunk, she did a very good job. Lemon, Lime and Orange slices numb my palate. Sheep are welcome in The Turks Head but no Morris Dancing. Sometimes the best aren’t best and The Pelican was packed out. Sunny Beano.

The last day, feeling better than yesterday. Lots of network it just does work issues. However there’s a fresh cask of Cowcatcher on at The Regal. If only more Pubs had filled rolls like the Turks Head. Installing October’s Pixel security update in The Pelican. I came with a cold, I left with a cold. It was the cold Mini Beano. I also with three Oktoberfest Pint glasses (paid for). The Severn Bridge is closed due to high winds.
Networks Just Don’t Work
WiFi won’t connect, VPN drops, Ultimate WiFi isn’t and only just 5G signal. It’s the last day of #mb10. There’s a fresh cask of Cowcatcher on at the Regal and it’s drinking well. The Turks Head has cheese and onion rolls everyday of the week. I need more pubs like this. Installing the Pixel 6a security updates in The Pelican. Tech, beer and travel.

Up, Bath, go back to bed, things, go back to bed again. Who knows? Late start and there are Squirrels everywhere. Port Stout in The Regal, where the three planes have gone. It’s only King Kong left now. Lots of Politics going on. The first time I have seen 5G Tesco (O2) and it’s in the centre of Gloucester. The Turks Head, cash only but a winner. No WiFi, great Land Lady. Faster WiFi and a great selection of Fine Ales, then it’s @thepelicanglos for you. Vodafone and Three to merge?
Squirrel Politics Monday
So either the cold is back or maybe it’s a hangover, I’m going with both. So, it was a late start and there were Squirrels everywhere. The Regal has lost its three planes, so it’s just King Kong left. Politics Monday and the 45% tax rate is to remain. The Regal really is good at keeping cask ale. The Turks Head, a great Land Lady and cask ales. Even faster WiFi in The Pelican and still a great selection of Fine Ales.
Markdown Curry Thursday
The practice day for #MB14 the Gloucester Brewery Oktoberfest. Suffering from lack of Motorway lights, computer systems that don’t talk and smokers that don’t close doors. However, some rather different Fine Ales, MacSparky’s Markdown guide and some Topcashback cashback. All ready for some Fine German Oktoberfest Ales tomorrow. It’s a drizzly end to the day.
