Here, we are stuck between three ultimate destinations: back to Reading, back to Calcot or back towards Newbury. To spice things up, we take the seven minute/0.3 mile walk to the bus stop of the same name on Bath Road, where we board the 1241 Reading Buses Jet Black service 1 to Thatcham (Broadway), arriving there at 1326 on Tuesday afternoon*.

* Reminder - if you're looking at timetables for today, it may be a Saturday service in the week on most operators in that lieu period between Christmas and New Year, so I recommend fast forwarding to after the New Year for accuracy!
