Anyway, hope that helps...Lots of Americans seem to think that British food isn't very good or nothing to write home about...I am an American who disagrees. I lived in England for 6 months at a time on my passport, several times. I learned some great meals to cook from being there. I can honestly say thanks to the UK I now make some of the best roast potatoes I have ever had stateside. Anyway, good luck to you and enjoy!
