Which is the only County in England without a McDonalds ?

According to Wikipedia it would be
Rutland. Probably due to it's small size.

And the gourmet tastes of its inhabitants.Note that Oakham has three Indian restaurants: one tandoori restaurant, one balti house and one cosmopolitan one

For anyone whose interested Oakham is the Only town in Rutland. Rest barely qualify as Villiages

Do you mind, Bedstor ?

Huh! I would have you know that Beaumont Chase,Rutland, a civil parish, created as a separate parish in 1858, consists of one farmhouse and the 2001 census recorded the population as 'nil' (the farmer must have been on holiday on the census day )

The population of the county is currently c 35,000 in Oakham (c 10,000) and 52 villages.

Thanks for the snicker ! An interesting tidbit that made me smile ! Now I think I will start an internet write-in campaign to get Rutland its first Mickey D's. After all, McDonalds' slogan is "Multum In Parvo" (Isn't it ?) !
