One of the things I'm interested in regarding Abraham Lincoln are the statues that have been made of him. Are there any Lincoln statues in the area of England where you are? Or Lincoln statues in England that you are aware of?

Yes indeed. Here we go. Erected in Parliament square, London

Oh don't. I have a thing about southern soul food. Love the stuff.

Aha!!!! i cooked it in a silicone baking tray. might account for the awful 'rubbery' taste. Hahaha....
