A quick guide to this year's St Patrick's Day Party. All errors are entirely of my own making.



Parking

Will be for permit holders only (blue, red, orange, yellow, white)
There is a limited number of disabled parking spaces available on a first come first served basis at a cost of £8

There are other parking facilities outside the stadium.
Check the Madejski Guide on the menu to the left (although pricing details on it may be out of date.) Shuttle Bus

Reading Station return shuttle bus service will be in operation from 11.00am to 9.00pm
The service starts from outside the station, and the return services leaves from the bus stop near the stadium on Northern Way.
The service runs approximately every 15 minutes.

£3.50 adult and £2 child return.

Entertainment in and around "The Village"

Digger's Pound will be outside for the day with Bouncy Castle and Face Painters

As per previous Parties, food and drinks outlets will be situated around the village (for those that haven't brought their own vittles.)

Has the bus fair gone up? It was £3 return last home game.

I also believe that The Lagan are playing after the game.

The details are from the offy site. Just cribbed to avoid our site going off line because of no front page story for 2 weeks.

Tom, in The Cowshed after the Wasps game, The Lagan lead singer said they hadn't been booked to appear but the BCS were going to give up 20 mins of their slot to them.

Weeather forecast for Saturday 12.00 noon to 3pm is 55 degrees (F) and sunny. Don't forget your sun cream, hat and sandals. Of course, you will freeze after the game.

Can't wait.

Come on you Irish

For those of you that have never been to one of the Paddy's Day games in the past, please remember that JamesC has got a spreadsheet with 19,281 names and you need to report to him before you access the ground so he can tick you off in the list. And if your name is not on the list, you are not coming in!
