We forgot the cat - we're sorry

Apologies to anyone who couldn't quite work out who we were, as we didn't have our faithful mascot with us. We did substitute a purple balloon with a cat drawn on it, but this may not have worked. Nonetheless we still got 11 people, including three newcomers, and a wide-ranging intellectual conversation.

The December munch will be on THURSDAY 15th DECEMBER - yes, you heard right; we're moving it to the 15th, because we expect most people will have christmas parties to go to on Friday 16th (we do, anyway). So we'll be braving the late-night shopping crowds for the last munch of the year - see you there!

Delayed start time

I might be delayed on Wednesday, so we will officially start the munch at 8pm; and Pete might be there without me. Please make your way in an orderly fashion to the downstairs bar, and look for him (hopefully with the mascot kitty), in the vicinity of the pool table. I hope to get there before closing time!

November Munch

The next Reading Munch will take place on Wednesday 16th November, from around 7.30pm, at The Outlook in Reading. We hope to be in the corner DOWNSTAIRS near the pool table, so don't go looking for us in the no smoking section by the main door, anymore.

Directions and Parking
The link includes a map showing that the pub is on the Kings Road, on the town centre side of the bridge. On the other side of the bridge you will find the Queens Road car park, accessible from the A329. You can also park right outside the pub if you are lucky.

Dress Code and Behaviour
Since they would not allow us to book, the pub is not currently aware of our meeting or our inclinations, so please dress in street clothes and be discreet.

Locating us
We plan to sit at the front of the pub, round the corner to your right as you come in through the door. This is the non-smoking section, however a satellite smoking group formed itself last month, and allowed for further mingling.

Look for the small but colourful toy cat - that's us.
