There's been a big car crash at the junction leading to IKEA and Sainbury's on the A4 in Reading. The road is closed eastbound at the M4 roundabout.
My satnav marked it closed all the way up to the Berkeley Avenue junction, but that doesn't seem likely.

A moderately dull news piece on changes to a bus lane in Reading. Just one minor problem: the picture isn't of the bus lane in question. It's not even of a bus lane in Reading. It appears to be from somewhere in Horsham. (The shop just behind the truck is "Dracula's House", a Romanian shop in Horsham -- but its current location doesn't match this picture).
At least the local news illustrates their articles with screengrabs of the right street from GMaps...

Idly browing this afternoon, I spotted that the local auctioneers seem to be doing a retro-gaming auction soon:

Just for anyone who might be interested and near Reading.

I think there's a thing with long-term Reading dwellers. It's not quite Millwall's "everyone hates us and we don't care". It's more like "everyone hates us and we *love* it".

Unearthed this Royal County of #Berkshire Official Guide from 1991 on what is, coincidentally, the 25th anniversary of the County Council's demise. I can't see much online about the guide, so I'll scan and PDF it over the weekend and add it to the #InternetArchive so you can all share in the 1990s nostalgia!
