10 Things I love about Leicester

Michael did 10 things he loves about America in his blog (see the links on the right) so thought I should reply. 1; Drive in banks. In this picture the second building in from the right is the first dive in bank in the UK. Opened in 1962 in Charles Street. 2 Free Refills; used to get these all the time at school - milk in 1/3 pint bottles. 3: Football; what can I say - blue army. 4: High Speed Internet Access - what about NTL - and its brilliant customer service? 5; Proper Seasons - Warm, wet and windy or cold wet and windy - no problem. 6: Wendy's - er well have you tried TJ's on Clarendon Park Road recently? 7; DVD's. We get them 150 yards around the corner, served by spotty youths, couldn't be more authentic. 8; Extravaganzas. Well everything is so big and well put together in Leicester - take the access to Fosse Park for example. 9; Attitude. We all feel at war in Leicester - with the traffic! 10; talkingballs.co.uk - a way of life for some sad old gits. So there we are Mike 10 things about Leicester which make me think we should be coming to join you in Oklahoma.
