Reading, Berkshire, England

<P>Many people say that Reading is boring, but few towns have so many major cultural events taking place. Some of the best examples are <A HREF="http://www.ccff.org.uk/">Caversham Charity Folk Festival</A> in June, <A HREF="http://www.womad.org">WOMAD</A> in July (see travelogue), and Reading Festival in August. All of these take place on or near Richfield Avenue in Reading.</P>
<P>If you are interested in photography and are in Reading on the first or third Monday of the month between September and June, why not visit <A HREF="http://www.nrpc.org.uk">North Reading Photographic Club</A>?</P>
<P>Have a look at my Reading travelogues. If you like what you see, please consider rating this page. Thank you.</P>
