Dutch 288 Posted September 4 Report Share Posted September 4 That’s my neck of the woods mate. Slough’s a shit hole but you can get the shuttle to Windsor in a few minutes which is decent. The surrounding areas are nice - Marlow, Cookham, Beaconsfield etc As some of the others have mentioned, there’s loads of fishing along the M4 corridor 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leo Sayer 3,911 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I lived down south in a caravan at 17, then I later moved to slough in another caravan next to a tip for a while. I remember it being a sh1thole back then. There was a traveller site near by and cos I had a lurcher and hawks and hawks and ferrets I got friendly with a traveller lad similar age, we used go ferreting together. Was a sh1thole but I have some good memories from my stint darn sarf. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
