It used to a Full English was an essential part of a Mini Beano. Lately I have flip flopped over them. There’s nothing wrong with them but sometimes I just don’t fancy them. By the way, Premier Inn seem to have got rid of their conveyor belt toasters. Standard toasters are now in. My Taxi Driver is saying £2.00 a litre for Diesel at Christmas. I fear he is correct. Mornings in Spoons, Oldies getting together and discussing the World. The Price Freeze on Fine Ales is reversed. Mayorships gained at both The Foley Hotel and Weavers Real Ale House. Taxi back.

It’s good driving at dawn when the roads are quiet, the odd spot of mist too. The M50 and DH Unplugged. Then cross country and the roads became narrower and narrower. The Premier Inn looks nice but it is a 45 minute walk away from Spoons. Thinking taxi. Spoons, The Foley Arms is a Hotel and has blisteringly fast FTTC. Maybe stay there next time? The Beer Fest continues. The Weavers Real Ale House, cask, keg, fridge and fast FTTC.

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.

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?

Sunday morning in Spoons, watching the world go by and catching up on things. All day brunch. A gentle end to OktoberfestGloucester 2022. A Winter Beer Festival in February? Premiere Elements 2023 woes. The cold is back.

Sometimes tech means you have more to do than without it. Costa prices go back to normal. Re upped DTNS on Twitch with Prime. Why don’t bars open the same time as places open? Still Coffee comes to the rescue. Running out of Festbiers. Saturday was packed out, there was a guy with a guitar. Still no salt and vinegar for the chips.

The Hat, the Gentle Mist, The Severn Pea Souper and The Firm Alarm evacuation on arrival. Cheaper Costa Meal Deal and a morning in The Lord High Constable of England. A QR, A Glass, A Geography Lesson then a HotDog with Sauerkraut. These and poor weather are what Mini Beanos are all about. Very Good Times.

Maybe the slowest Ultimate WiFi ever. However Premier Inn all you can eat Breakfast with real Toasters. The Joy of the superior Wetherspoon’s Aircon and their WiFi for that matter. Are there ghosts in the flushing mechanism of the Wetherspoon’s toilet? Or just that the sensor is in the wrong place? Across the road in The Punch House and it’s Beavertown. The Robin Hood was a Pub come pile it high carvery and the Green Dragon was a classic Sky Sports on Sunday go to and it’s only guest ale was DoomBar. Monmouth, you were nice but not really a beer town.

So the WiFi worked with the MacBook Pro this morning. A few, WiFi issues with the Dell but it was soon up and working. Put June’s security patch on the Pixel 3a and listened to the political updates on Boris’s No Confidence win. Learned that Dark Sky and it’s API will be gone by the end of the and March 2023. A misty world out of the window. Priced the MBA M2, expensive for mySKU. Lack of Bacon Rolls and Staff in Costa Coffee, no free drinks today. Video recording, posting and Cask Ales in The Lord High Constable Of England. Went to The Pelican, it is my Number One Pub.
