Thought this was par for the course in the Oxford Road , surprised it made the news.

I have swopped my shift and just need to book the train - are we getting a plus bus ticket on top then?

yes, do so if you can. It makes the day a bit more exciting

Can you buy the plus bus ticket on the day on the bus?

Can you buy the plus bus ticket on the day on the bus?

Judging by the text here, no: http://www.plusbus.info/reading-plus...cludes-woodley

But an all-day ticket (purchsed on the bus) is only a couple of quid extra (£4) and a groupsave is:

"4 go together - simplyReading group only £8 and valid all day. Any 4 people travelling together, can be a combination of adults & children, all adults or all children!"

is £2pp so perhaps it might be easier to buy on the day? Of course, it depends on how many show up so perhaps get the plusbus anyway?!? Who is good at maths?

No, they are supposed to be bought in conjunction with a train ticket; train, plus bus...

Yeah, it's a bit rough and ready around there! I was thinking more of the Rose and Thistle which is on the edge of the bad lands.
I used to rent a room down Elm Park Road. The house over the road had a burnt out car in the garden for the whole year I stayed there. There were also some funny goings on a couple of doors down where different gentlemen would turn up at all hours. I was never tempted to investigate further!

And another!

Having missed Leicester, I'm rather gutted to announce I won't be able to make Reading either. I've just found out tonight it clashes with a close friend's fiftieth bash. Oh, well. Third time lucky.

A quick National Rail check suggests that I'll probably be arriving at Reading at 11:24 and then heading off to The Alehouse to meet up. Train home likely to be at 19:34. Less than 4 weeks to go!
