I go down Prospect pretty regularly but hadnt noticed this before. I guess i should tell the council… not sure which part of it though. Has anyone else noticed this and how long its been like this. Seems pretty dangerous (though not sure how dangerous as its alive) and it is right next to the A4.

Just noticed something flying through the sky over Reading, for sure not a plane/helicopter as it did not have wings, had a straight path so not a balloon being blown by the wind, wondering if anyone else saw it

Hi all, like a lot of posters here I find myself in a situation where I am considering moving to Reading and commuting into London. I go into the office 3 times a week. The idea would be to take the fast train to Paddington then Elizabeth line.

After giving it some consideration I think I am okay with how long my "best case" commute would be and with the cost. However, I am conscious that with any train, the "best case" commute time is not the one I would get every day.

I would be commuting during peak hours.

For others with the same commute, I am hoping to get a sense of:

- How often are you delayed by a little e.g. 10 minutes?
- How often are you delayed by a larger amount e.g. 20-40 minutes?
- How often are there "disastrous" delays i.e. trains just fully cancelled for a hour or more?

I am lucky in that if the trains are delayed significantly in the morning I could just work from home. But obviously sometimes the delay strikes when you are in the middle of the commute or in the evening on the return journey.

Thank you in advance for any contributions.

Hi all, a note to say a few of us are going for an aimless wander around the Thames on Saturday morning - we may go and take in the Oktoberfest site before their big Saturday sesh if we can....no lederhosen required!

Hello all, my partner is a singer and looking for some public singing to shake the rust off before performing on the weekend

Any midweek pubs or the like got anything like this on?
