    3. Re-sending this mail as I do not think it went the first time. << My Mother, who was born & bred in Leicester used to call me 'mi duck' & the memory of it still makes me cringe. I hated it. No one has mentioned the 'causey' as in ' keep on the causey'. It meant 'keep on the path', I have certainly travelled back a few decades reading the current topic. By the way, the revolving metal drum was a coffee grinder in the window of one of Winns Cafes facing the market stall, where footballer Gary Linekar's parents had their greengrocery stall. Do people still meet under 'Kemp's Clock & does Bruccianis still do their wonderful Knickerbocker Glorys? The older I get (78 this year) the more of my past I remember in detail. Wish my short term memory was as good....... Best wishes to all ex-Leicestrians wherever you are.>> June Fleetwood West Yorkshire

    3. Brucciani's also now do a sandwich van, so I have to resist their delicious cream cakes every day at work! I hope they never disappear, they're a proper Leicester institution and it's nice to have somewhere you can go where you know you can just get a really good cup of tea and a teacake or some toast. Everywhere else seems to be disappearing down the coffee shop/bistro route :( On 14 February 2012 10:40, Doreen Welch <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes they do > > > Our Ice-cream Menu > OUR FAMOUS ICE CREAM > > Vanilla, Strawberry, Chocolate, Cappuccino, Rum & Raisin, Mint Choc Chip, > Pistachio, Banana, Cherry > with strawberry, chocolate, butterscotch, raspberry, hot chocolate > fudge sauces or fresh, whipped cream > ICE CREAM SUNDAES TREAT YOURSELF ! > FRUIT SUNDAE ice cream and diced fruit smothered in fresh, whipped cream > PARFAIT ice cream, sauce and a topping of your choice > CHOC & CHECKERS our chocolate & vanilla ice creams with two Cadbury’s > flakes > KNICKERBOCKER GLORY a tower of vanilla ice cream, fruit, sauce and fresh > cream > CHOC CHOC SUNDAE rich chocolate ice cream, hot chocolate fudge and fresh > cream > STRAWBERRY & CHERRIES strawberry ice cream with Amareno cherries, sauce > and cream > KALEIDOSCOPE 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream with 4 sauces and fresh cream > BANANA SPLIT fresh banana with 3 ice creams, fresh cream and drizzled > with sauce > RAINBOW BOAT choose 3 large scoops of ice cream plus 3 sauces, fresh > cream & cherries > > Doreen > > > ________________________________ > From: J FLEETWOOD <[email protected]> > To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 12:48 AM > Subject: [LEI] (no subject) > > Re-sending this mail as I do not think it went the first time. > << My Mother, who was born & bred in Leicester used to call me 'mi duck' & > the memory of it still makes me cringe.

    3. Hi Doreen & List Thank you so much - bang goes the diet again............. I am sure many a Leicester/Leicestershire child was taken there for a treat by their parents.   Possibly still happening.   Used to work above the shop in what was then an office for Remington Rand Ltd., Typewriters & office Equipment, first as a Telephonist?Receptionist & then as Secretary to the Typewriter Manager.   Remember using one of the first so-called Noiseless Typewriters & Electric Typewriters - showing my age now.    June Fleetwood (nee Rainbow) West Yorkshire  From: Doreen Welch <[email protected]> To: J FLEETWOOD <[email protected]>; "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, 14 February 2012, 10:40 Subject: Re: [LEI] (no subject) Yes they do Our Ice-cream Menu OUR FAMOUS ICE CREAM Vanilla, Strawberry, Chocolate, Cappuccino, Rum & Raisin, Mint Choc Chip, Pistachio, Banana, Cherry with strawberry, chocolate, butterscotch, raspberry, hot chocolate fudge sauces or fresh, whipped cream ICE CREAM SUNDAES TREAT YOURSELF !
