Well Happy New Year everyone,

As its the 3rd of Jan, remember we have another anniversary to celebrate, JRR Tolkien's birthday.

Apparently a toast at 9pm local time is the thing,

Cheers!

Good thing you just posted here, I would have otherwise totally forgotten this, I'll definitely get a beer at 10 PM CET.

Maybe we could do this in our Barrow chat?

Thank you, sir, for giving us your world to dream of!

A virtual toast to The Professor!

Same procedure as every year, James!

Now if only I'll be able to get my mother, my brother, and my cousin to toast with me. . .
