Drinking With Legends

Okay, not really, but I did hit a very special pub today: The Eagle and Child. Doesn't ring any bells?

It's in Oxford, and it's where J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis went and met up, calling themselves the Inklings, when they were working on their major books. And I went there. I'm happy.

BECAUSE I WAS DRINKING IN THE VERY PLACE THAT TOLKIEN DID.
