Tolkien's Death Day
Given our site's theme of death, I think it is appropriate to commemorate this day, upon which JRR Tolkien died 41 years ago - many members of the Barrow-Downs weren't alive yet themselves at that time!
Please join me in raising your glass of whatever beverage you choose in honour of the man who gave us so much: "The Professor!"
