Factory Where Vardy Worked?

Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm going to be mucking about up North for a few weeks and figured I'd kill some time doing a mini Vardy Story Tour thing. Anybody know what factory it was that he worked at making splints? In Halifax wasn't it?

That's creepy

they've probably got 20+ japanese tourist out front every morning. Sporting 2 cameras and morrissey shirts. 

Reckon they've even got a gift shop by now selling souvenir Vardy Splints and doing daily tours.

If you're going up north to see a factory you've got too much time on your hands.

Sounds like a good idea. I hope you visit other famous landmarks too, such as the hospital where he was born, the school he used to go to, the corner shop where he used to buy his bread, and the nightclub where he used to bang the other guys who chatted shit.

I sometimes pass within 200 yards of Leicester market and often nip in because Gary Lineker used to work there...

Whenever I buy my fruit and veg there I get all nostalgic just knowing I'm stood on the same bit of concrete as the Leicester legend..

What exactly are you going to do when you get to this factory?

Literally the weirdest thread ever

apply for a job, and one day play for england.

good grief charlie brown. for once in 15 years i'm going to be randomly mucking around up north, mainly in vard's old neck of the woods, and was just curious if my path would be crossing any points of interest. Hardly doing a bleedin pilgrimage.

 

It aint like i'm planning to drop serious cash to watch our reserves have a kickabout with some hairdressers   :whistle:

I had a holiday in a place (Yorkshire again) that had a pub with the same name as one in a Discworld book. But in my defense I am a Terry pratchett fan and the pub serves real ale so I got something out of it.
