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.

What happened on the second day of mb04 2026

It’s the little things, like 100 extra loyalty points if you don’t have your room cleaned. That will do for me.

The Knights Templar and the Commercial Rooms, and in the Commercial Rooms, virtual WhatsApp breakfast. There was the World Cup draw sweepstake, and coming out of the Commercial Rooms, I saw an air raid shelter tour. Went to the Barley Mow, and Gemini went down worldwide. You can’t trust these things; however, a blackberry raspberry grape Berliner Weisse—that’s what it’s all about.

A gentle drive along the M4 with the odd light fog patch. Costa breakfast and someone had booked my space at the Bridge House. Taking it easy and some was also in my space in the Prince of Wales. Rain and an exhausted early night.

A touch of Red Sky in the morning on the easy journey down. Spoons Wings and Chips a winner. Great welcome at The Settle Inn even before I’d been in. Extra Fast Premier Inn WiFi.

The birds were singing as I loaded up the car. Breakfast was a Scotch Egg minus the Egg. The M4 got really foggy when it became English. 4 Spoons Festival Ales and a Boneless Chicken Basket and then meeting Rickie and Eddie at The Waverley.

What happened on the second day of mb06 2025

Semi sleep in and it was already hot when I left the Travelodge. Luckily The Bridge House was back open. Police bringing drunks in to get served and a fresh cask of Plum Porter. A gentle afternoon in The Waverley with a fan.
