Unit Posted 1 September 2009 Posted 1 September 2009 I've seen this a million times and wondered if anybody on here knows what it is, as you drive down (i think) groby road, there's a massive house with a huge photo fixed onto the side, it's of a man with a cigar in his mouth looking pretty G-star. Any ideas?
samlcfc Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 haha, that picture makes me laugh. Apparently its some gangster bloke that has it there to remind people whos house it is incase the thought of robbing it crosses their mind. The way the picture is though its probably half because he thinks hes awesome
General Smuts Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 Davie G might know, he lives close to there.
davieG Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 Davie G might know, he lives close to there. I must drive by in a dream because i have no idea what this is about
Unit Posted 2 September 2009 Author Posted 2 September 2009 I must drive by in a dream because i have no idea what this is about Ha, keep a look out when you're next around there, if you're driving down towards groby it's a big house on your right hand side, with a massive photo of a man on the side... bit odd

Joe. Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 I've never seen this either, despite living in Groby and going through Glenfield regularly!
samlcfc Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 if your driving up the A50 towards town its opposite the Skoda garage and just before the cemetary
davieG Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 if your driving up the A50 towards town its opposite the Skoda garage and just before the cemetary So on the site of the old Groby Rd Hospital, either the laundry, the Premier in or the new small housing estate/
Joe. Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 if your driving up the A50 towards town its opposite the Skoda garage and just before the cemetary Now you mention it I think I have seen it actually. I must have driven down there hundreds of times before, I'll look out for it next time!
samlcfc Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 So on the site of the old Groby Rd Hospital, either the laundry, the Premier in or the new small housing estate/ Just look to the left driving into town. Afterall it is a picture of a bloke smoking a cigar painted onto the front of a house
Soar Fox Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 It's actually one of my dads friends he's called Jake. He does think he's a gangstar he's got a private number plate saying P4Y UP
General Smuts Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 I've never seen this either, despite living in Groby and going through Glenfield regularly! Granted i don't live in Leicester anymore but i've never seen it either.
Unit Posted 2 September 2009 Author Posted 2 September 2009 Photo or thread is worthless. I wish google streetview had hit leicester, would make stuff like this loads easier
CosbehFox Posted 2 September 2009 Posted 2 September 2009 I run past every week from the opposite direction. Keep an eye out next time. I wonder whether something like that requires planning permission.
