That must be unusual Jeane, a memorial to the Devil - is he buried in Nottingham then ? must be an evil place to live, although it looks quite pleasant in the photo.
Don't they say the Devil looks after his own ?

Ha ha ha, I didn't realise his hoof was on my head

. I don't believe there is actually anyone buried underneath him but he was in an area of Newstead Abbey (Byron's ancestral home) where there are several graves.

I thought the Devil went down to Georgia?

At the risk of spoiling a perfectly good thread, the statue is more likely to be of Pan. The Victorians were quite fond of classical references and with Byron dying in Greece the connection becomes even more possible.
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

I thought John Travolta was the only one to 'die' in Grease?

Thinking of you this morning up near Kings Cross Jeane, along Grays Inn road. Found this small park off the main (empty office filled) road.
Tell them that I came, and no one answered.
