Parking in Leicester

Imagine with me: You've got yourself to Leicester. You're on Westcotes Drive. You're outside the Church Hall. But you're still in your car and there is no on-street parking available. What do you do?

If you know Leicester well enough then you find your favoured parking space near to the Church Hall. There is a lot of streets with on-street parking nearby but you may find the the football fans have beaten you to it. There is also little chance that large numbers of people in the area will be getting in their car and moving; I have a copy of the guest list here and practically everyone in LE3 has been invited.

So: if you've followed the instructions so far you will be on Westcotes Drive, with Narborough Road behind you. Carry along this road until the traffic lights and turn right into Fosse Road South, passing the very new health centre on your left. Shortly after this you should see a number of cars parked on your left hand side. Come off Fosse Road South by turning left and turn left into the car park. Then walk the 200m back to the Church Hall, shake my hand and get yourself some food.
