Where are the stores in the United Kingdom?--Darrelljon 21:41, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

I remember there was a Blimpie in Leeds City Centre but this closed several years ago and is now a travel agents. Also looked on Blimpie website and there is no mention of any UK branches so believe this entity is now defunct in the United Kingdom. Would suggest editing to say they had tried entering UK market but had withdrawn for whethever reason. --Wrh1973 14:28, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

I wonder if Blimpies leaving the UK was based in some part on fear of confusion with Wimpy's?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Blimbielogo.jpg

Image:Blimbielogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 14:22, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
