Hi I'm Helen and I live in Hertfordshire with my partner, 14 guinea pigs, 6 hamsters and 1 mouse. We are both Vegan and have been for around 5 years. Lovely to meet you all.

Hi Helen! I'm from Herts too - Radlett - and there's at least one other here too. Considering how there seems to be a lot of veg*ns here, it's surprising Herts doesn't have any good veggie restaurants right?

Wow that's flukey. I went to uni in Aldenham and went through Radlett every day. You would think we would have at least one good one wouldn't you. There is a pub on the edge of Stevenage which does veggie and vegan options which is quite good.
 
There is a little vegetarian cafe in Watford, a few miles from me and I know the owners from work. They don't have a license to cook on the premises so the menu consists of frozen stuff they can heat up - veggie burgers, falafel, and I think some sandwiches and paninis. I don't really go there since the owner ranted to me about vegans thinking they're better than everyone else, when I had just bought a vegan cake from him :|

I work in Aldenham, small world huh :)
 
I know the place you mean, a few vegan friends go there. That's not a very nice thing to say when such a large amount of their customers are probably vegan.
 
Yeah, they definitely lost me as a customer that day. I don't want to discourage anyone from going though, everything is lacto-vegetarian and they have put so much effort into making the place a success. But any how, we should get a petition going for a proper sit-down vegan restaurant :D
 
Thank you everyone. Moll Flanders, have guessed who you are from your avatar. Lovely pic of the dogs.

Raggle, are you from Herts too?

Lord Snot, a petition sounds a good plan.
 
Hi Helen!! 14 guinea pigs, 6 hamsters, and a mouse?? You must post some pics when you have the chance to.

Thank you everyone. Thefadedone, I will definitely post some pictures, I have loads though. We have had 28 other animals living with us over the past few years. The pig in my avatar is my late Nigel, he was extremely special.
