Leicestershire Travel Forum

called Leicester or is it just the county? And approximately how far from Cambridge is Leicestershire?

ta!

Thank you. I thought there was a city/town called Leicester but couldn't find it on VT so I wondered if I only dreamt it.:o)

Leicester is in Vt listed since the new changes ...

check it again ...

sorry you are right,.. my leicester page now is called Leicestershire ....

I suppose that vt staff is dealing with the counties in Uk, and they must be working on it now...

by sure it will be everything back to normal soon ...

I'm not too worried - I haven't been there! :o) Dad was asking about it and I was trying to find some info to tell him and was surprised to find only Leicestershire.

Some info...Walker's crisp factory is there, as is Premiership club Leicester FC, sponsored by said crisp company. Apart from that, I can tell you that there are loads of Asian immigrants (many working in sweat shops...) so food should be good. Finally, Richard III was dragged here by the Lancastrians after dying at Bosworth Field nearby :-(((

leicester fc are in the english 1st division now not the premiership.they got relegated last year but they may get promoted this year.

Yum! I love Walker's salt and vinegar and those fancy new flavours they are doing. Was anyone else collecting those whoopee cushions for Red Nose Day? :o) Maybe I should put Leicester on my 'must see list'!

hmm... Leicester and Nottingham (Nottinghamshire) are quite near each other. Nottingham is home of Robin Hood... Maybe that's another suggestion. :-)

Yes of course Dunk...(crunch, crunch...humble pie...).

Robin Hood is buried in Yorkshire though as that's where the Locksley family came from :-)

HEY, there is a Leicester - look at a map! I wanna know why my first name was LEICESTER - maybe we had ancestors there?
