Ahoy, me hearties! The Reading Shanty Singers be hosting their Monthly Shanty Session every second Wednesday of the month at The Castle Tap on Castle Street.

Ye can join in fer free, but best book a table to avoid disappointment.

Sing songs of the sea and waterways, lead a shanty, or just listen along with a pint.

All are welcome, but be mindful of the lyrics and avoid the dodgy verses to keep things inclusive. So hoist the mainsail and set a course for the pub to join in the fun.

The next session is on Wednesday, April 12.
