Reading

Exact Location
For those of you traveling to Reading for the BigFreeze, you will be pleased to know that your location will offer plenty of places to get a self congratulatory drink and treat afterwards. The Reading chapter will be freezing on the pedestrian walks and bridges either side of the river at the Oracle Shopping Centre (as shown on the map to the right). Try and spread yourselves around the square and onto different levels but please make sure you do NOT obstruct any important paths or doorways. Make sure you keep moving while you wait for the signal, walking up and down the high street. If you're already stood around waiting for it, it won't make much of a difference when you all freeze. Please make sure you read through the instructions on the homepage once you have read this page.

Signal Information
At 12:30pm, two short sharp airhorn blows will mark the beginning of the event. When you hear them, continue as you are but count to 10 in your head. When you reach 10, freeze into your position and hold. After the 5 mins is up you will hear two more airhorn blows. Again, hold your position and count to 10, then at 10, carry on with whatever you where doing before the freeze.
