England - Reading

Mum and I ate at Bill's in Reading city centre, it was lovely but far more carby than I'm currently used to.
We're now in the library at Reading Uni. We went to see the Ure collection of Greek and Egyptian artefacts which made no distinction between the two due to concurrent timelines (I assume). There was a Gold Flake tin in one of the exhibits which totally surprised me as that is what everyone smoked in India. And yesterday there was Sanskrit on the obelisk sundial in the garden yesterday. Something is telling me I should be there...
Then we saw some Sickert sketches that they keep in the Art History department's library.
A very camp dude just said 'fullarfull' instead of falafel. And I am amazed by the prevalence of the London accent here.
