Can I have a lift?
I've booked the finest room Premier Inn has to offer, so i'm planning to be there.
I'll be driving up from Bristol so could potentially lift share etc. Although 4 hours in a car with a stranger talking about why i'm the best Neo Turf Masters player ever may not appeal.

Booked the same hotel, I'll be coming from Swindon, so i'll wave at you on the way up.

Leicester no one wants to visit it seems and no one even talks about the old Leicester arcades apart from myself
I used to love the Leicester arcades. One just outside of the Silver Arcade, one just down Belgrave Gate past Sainsburyās, St Margaretās bus station with an MVS, plus all the taxi ranks and chippies that had cabs as well as the small arcade down Narborough Road!
We never went in the Narborough Road one, assumed it was just Fruit Machines from the window. you might like this thread I did a while back

Are you still in the area? If not Iāll take some pictures of places I remember next time Iām in Leicester.
Yeah I'm still here cheers mate, see the old places all the time, just wish I had pictures from inside the arcades, if you remember what machines they had in which arcade please add some info to the thread, I only remember a small amount and memory fades over the years, also if you remember what cabs they actually were, I mainly looked at what was on the screen back then lol
They call me Ernie ābecause I drive the fastest milk kart in the westā
At the bar at AC and following on at the premier inn Bury, see you there.
Apart from Stokers who will be hiding in a broom cupboard

I'd just like to confirm that any and all 'I'll Fight You' comments have been made in jest and I have no desire to enter into a physical altercation with anyone.
