How are you getting on mate?
I was just about to start a new thread about the venue when I came across this one. Does anyone know how the venue has historically fished in the colder months (Jan/ Feb)? Thinking of a social booking with some friends.

Forgot to ask, would I get away using bank sticks or would I need to bring my pod?
Hoping the rain soften the ground by now ☺️

Up to Burghfield Common you have a Tesco Express, Co Op, Nisa and a bakery there is also an Esso with a Spar although only a small one. Head the other way towards Reading up the Burghfield Road on the A4 there is an Aldi and Lidl ( next door to each other) and another Esso with a decent Tesco's. Blue pool is about the same time to each of them.
Next to the Co Op is a take away pizza shop that will take phone orders for collection they don't do delivery.

The Bridge cafe opposite the Cunning Man pub not so sure it's still open. The Mortimer Cafe is not far about 5 mins by car.
