a 15 minute ****ing walk????? you must walk fast

Ok 15 mins might be pushing it, but from The Blackbird to the start of town (Churchgate) can't be much more than 20 mins. Ravensbridge Dr down to St Margarets Way is only 7-8 mins, and from there to the start of Churchgate cannot be much more than 10-12 mins

I met Boc outside the ground on Sat at 5.07pm and made the train to Nottingham at 5.30pm.

According to google it's 0.7 miles. I would walk the way you'd drive. Thats achievable in less than 20 mins. Even by a fat **** like me!

I drive like a twat in town, it's the only way. Now Boc did say you walk like a twat though, so you must be correct.....:icon_bigg

Is that the same ever-useful site that doesn't even have Leicester listed as one of its City's

Are you suggesting that I made the figures up?

Choose London or any other city, input LE (or any other) postcodes and away you go.

When me and the missus lived opposite the Blackbird we could comfortably walk into town in under 15 minutes, though I suppose it depends what you class as town. I am using St Margrets as reference.

I know The Blackbird on the corner of Anstey Lane / Blackbird Road has a function room upstairs. I also know that it's had functions for people of the age in question. It's recently had a full refurb too.

You might be ok as it's out of the city centre but only by a 15 minute walk, so if the people of age fancy heading in to town aftewards they are very close. Loads of parking too, for those that are driving.

Still wouldn't bother with the place after it's refurb - the bar staff shocking and the locals rough as feck. Lazzer is aware of the tales of Ken The Milkman from Baco.(I'm guessing he is, if not tell Baco he backed Crouch to score last night and stuck £5k on it (Ken the Milkmen that is))...leering 80 yr old homeless fella who loves coming in when there's a party on with 16-21 year olds.

Now if you were to invite me to the party, they'd be no trouble at all. As I am top boy in the local area and I do not tolerate trouble on my door step.

I'd agree. 15 minutes piece of piss.

Try 'Willie Thorne's Snooker Club' in town. We've had a few parties in there and a few 18th's and 21st's. Highly recommend the place for a shindig.

I don't think you can get much 'town' than Clock Tower.

Wouldn't be so bad if the neanderthals from Leeds used that version instead of the racist crap.

I would take more offence to Bocs chant than the leeds one

Oh shit! That's twice I've upset him in less than a month.

I was only trying to emphasise that the walkit.com site does workm for Leicester FFS.

I thought about suggesting that yesterday. I've been to a few parties there. Also Leicester Lions Rugby Club (Westleigh) just down the road may be ok.
