20260611 mb04 Day 03 Wrap
What happened on the third day of mb04 2026
Was it summer, or did it rain and blow a gale? I think it was the latter. Anyway, Commercial Rooms—the back is rather good, but it can get really busy, so don’t get locked in there.
I snagged some new macOS 27 wallpaper; I really liked it. I must return to Little Martha Brewery, and Wiper and True as well. Little Martha, rabbit-related. FIFA servers were glitching ahead of the World Cup. And in Wiper and True, it was full of blokes needing a pint after work. Can’t blame them, really. They were playing “Goodbye Stranger” by Supertramp in the background. Wonderful.

Beers Of The Beano – Tuesday 09 June 2026
Quality Rolls and Crisps
October 2021. The last time I was in Bristol. Why did it take me so long to return? It has been a great day. New pubs, cheese and onion rolls, spring onion crisps, beef and onion crisps, and Three UK providing great bandwidth. What a cracking day.
Prelude – Beers Of The Beano – Tuesday 09 June 2026
mb04 for June 2026. Off to Bristol for a bit of a Beano. 2 new Spoons for the Spoons anpp and one new Spoons for the Cask Marque app. It seems to be a bit rainy here which is a shame however the new Spoons of the Robert Fitz Harding is rather nice. Cheers Tipplers.
Beers Of The Beano – Saturday 16 May 2026
When May is rather wet and not very early summery, it’s time to revisit pubs that you haven’t been to since June 2021. The Rickards. What a great place that is. Twt Lol Lollfest glasses and Grey Trees beer. Then on to the Otley, where I got waved at. Still haven’t fixed the WiFi though, but the beers are really rather good. Nearly lost my bus pass as well.
mb03 2026 Unplugged
Badly lit, poor sound. May Day 2026 Weekend in Chippenham. Picture in Picture and settling on iMovie. New Bristol Brewery won out.
