I am anxious to publish The Lord of the Rings as soon as possible. I believe it to be a great (though not flawless) work.. there is only one (more or less) fair copy in existence. I dare not consign that to the post..

Three English churches have a dedication to the Beheading of St John the Baptist, and one of them is at Trimingham in Norfolk. His head on a platter appears in a spandrel of the 15c rood screen.

“Of all the Bank Holidays the Monday in August seems the most genuine. Whit Monday, like Easter Monday, moves with the compulsion of the moon. August Bank Holiday depends upon nothing but itself. It is a gift-day, out of, and generally under, the blue.” ~A.A.Milne #GiftDay
