stratford is a very nice place to live mate, bar the tourists in summer. you spent much time here caiza? not getting confused with stafford? we have some of the best theatres in the country, very good restaurants, great schools, crime is fairly low ..national heritage in terms of shakespeare... i dont think thousands of tourists would visit if it is a bad place!! Dont get me wrong, theres some nice parts of leicester, my dad's family are based there.... nice places especially on the outskirts

yeah drove there the other day. Ended up turning off at the roundabout to saffron cemetary way. To me that area looked pretty shabby, dunno if its the worst there but there werent much to look at. Overall i dnt like leicester, and u keep hearing abuot all these new ideas they keep puttin in place to improve it like u lot said but it will still be the same. As for gyms i dnt know, i dnt train in leicester.

There are a couple of decent ones here in Leicester. Fitness First on Raw Dykes Road is probably one of the best that i've been to. There are a couple of leisure centres that have got pretty well equipped gyms as well. There are a few 'hardcore' places around too but i've never been inside.

I lived in Leicester once. I trained for a bit at Olympia gym - down a back street the name of which I can't recall. Had a bloke Spencer who was very helpful and committed. Dunno if it's still there. If not, it's a shame. I'd love to train there now (if I still lived in the city).
