Or any other Berks, I've been recommended the Hook & Tackle - a pleasant walk along the canal to the ground - allegedly. Do they serve Barley Wine?

no need

for many a year so can't comment on the beers on offer now.  I've never walked along the canal there either, but I can't imagine it's very pleasant, to be honest.  It would be about a two mile walk, I'd say, if you really wanted to do it. 

Okay

... Goofy. After reading your reply I might just canoe along the grand union from the top of ladbroke grove instead.

 ... oh Alperton!
I still hear your seawinds blowing
I still see your dark eyes glowing 
I was 21 when I left Alperton

...never forget when I stumbled out of a pub one Sunday afternoon. Blinded by the light, a little worse for wear and a touch befuddled, I thought I was hallucinating as a bloke came riding up Ealing Rd on the back of an elephant.

Blinded By The Light!

 - Boston becomes Bosston! -

Madman drummers bummers, Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin, the calliope crashed to the ground
Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot snappin' his fingers clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand


Now Scott with a slingshot finially found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not said daddy's within earshot save the buckshot, turn up the band



And she was Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light


She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night



Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
Says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it's funny bone, that's where they expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner, watching the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone, reminding him of romance


or was it a Bernard Manning joke?
