I have been to the Abraham Lincoln Presdiential Museum in Springfield, Illinois. It's an overnight trip from my home state of Iowa, and I do recoomend it.

Did you drive right by the Herbert Hoover birthplace to get to the Lincoln site? :-)

Pardon my geography. West Branch is west of you, I think.
Branch water. Whiskey or whisky. Yum.

West Branch is west of me, and yes I have been to the Herbert Hoover Presdiential Libray as well. That's a day trip from my neighborhood here in Iowa.

Around 1.5 MILLION Americans didn't consider Abe Lincoln to be their President !

C30, I think even more Brits are ready to say that Cameron isn't their PM!

What a good idea - independence for Bedford, and Power to the People!

Sounds good to me!
Love to know what the Official Language of Leicester would be,though. We would have about 37 to choose from. Esperanto would probably be best - but I vote for Klingon. Kapla!

Apparently Bedford has the highest number of languages per head of population, in the world! If we adopt Klingon too, we shall have solidarity with the people of Leicester. Hands across the counties and all that.
Power to the people!
