Pop down to Walker's Pork Pie shop on Cheapside while you're there. Not only are the pork pies good, it's also the original home of Walker's Crisps, which they started as a sideline when meat rationing after the war made the pork butchery trade a bit slow.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostI hate Leicester, but only because I am stuck here. In fairness it's not a bad place, and their cheese is the best for cheese on toast. And they made Gary Linekar. So all in all not a bad place.
How's your past 24 hours been?
