The Staying Awake Day
Lots of Costa Coffee to keep me awake today but then Salopian and BrewDog citrus hoppiness turned up to spoil it all. First time in a Five Guys, wish the burgers were wider not taller and the small serving of chips is plenty. Not cheap but very good.
Back to The Pelican, Gloucester. Fine Ale and Fast WiFi central. You don’t often see Deya on cask. Lots of Rugby fans and then it went quiet.

Not only no street lights but 20 mph. The M5 as it gently got light while the M4 was a racing track. Bonus Nectar points while there was no Breakfast deal in Costa Coffee. The canal bridge rises twice. A new carpet in The Lord High Constable of England. Märzen in the Brewhouse and Kitchen. A gentle start to Oktoberfest Gloucester. No food van but plenty of beer and another glass. I fell asleep and was offered a glass of water.
British And Original Festbiers
Dark start. No street lights and 20 mph, Oh the joy. The traffic seemed much faster on the M4 today. The M5 was pleasant as dawn gently arrived. Extra Nectar points at the local Sainsbury and no Bacon Roll and Coffee breakfast deal at the Gloucester Quays Costa Coffee. A new carpet in The Lord High Constable of England.
The Brewhouse and Kitchen and falling asleep in Warehouse 4. Did I want a glass of water?
August’s Humid Last Gasp
As it already turns more Autumnal, it Spoons Full English and a Pint for Breakfast. Extra Butter but at no extra cost. Walking to the Hereford Beer House it was spotting and rather humid. Sitting in the corner of the Hereford Beer House was the most relaxing best of times. Fine Ales Plus.

Hearing on the radio that Bernie Marsden had died on Thursday. Listening to Mac OS Ken’s lack of advertising and signing up for his Patreon. Had an X like. Big queues for The Hereford Indie Food Festival and the weather has now turned mostly sunny. Great draft ales in the Hereford Beer House. End of the day hammering down.
Podcasting Times Are Hard
All rather grey and cool to start the day. Then it rained and by Spoons time it had cheered up. Was listening to the Mac OS Ken Podcast and it is shocking how empty his advertising schedule was going up to the new year. Signed up to his Patreon. Had an X like. The Hereford Beer House. Very Fine Ales and Great Beer talk. The sun shone.

The lack of valley street lights. Dawn with a touch of Autumnal mist. Cheaper Petrol and Costa. Limited Spoons menu, at least for a while. Back into the filled rolls routine. Cooling rain and a refurbished room.
