Neither have I, but as far as I'm aware, they are still available in a few 
eel, pie & mash shops. Due to the scarcity of eels, their prices are 
rather high.

Your warning is redundant. The word 'lord' in it is enough to put me off 
and the name "Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center" would have me 
running for the hills, screaming.
