Does anyone know if you can buy a ticket to park at Slough Station from (this) Friday night until Saturday lunchtime?

Yes you can.  We went to the booking office and they sold us a ticket until midnight Friday and another until midnight Saturday.  Seems there is no special weekend rate - just after 4pm on Friday until midnight and then all day Saturday.  We could also have paid by phone when parking and then paid again at midnight for the Saturday (if we had remembered at that point!).

Point for anyone parking at Slough O2 buiding opposite (which is empty) has a manned  underground carpark cheaper tahn the station.

Chat to guys that run it they would probaly have let you park overnight.
