Reading and "reading" related stuff, including places, pubs, gigs and posts about reading. If you have something to contribute concerning reading that is not mentioned here, please contribute. Particularly if you have something to contribute concerning local pubs or other places, home brew, ale, or appley goodness. Cheers.
This is my personal site, so if you search here for pubs or other places it will only return reading pubbing / places I have been to or plan to go to. Fingers crossed it will return those anyway...If you are interested in a more general search please try reading on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and even international places...
