I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when the 2 of them met up and talked
I would have loved the same, Star. Wonderful talks they must have been. Thanks for the book info, Red; sounds as interesting reading.
They even had some sort of society where they met at some place OK, I think that was the Eagle & Child pub where the Inklings met. I've been to this pub in Oxford. If I remember the bitter (Old Speckled Hen I think or M&B), was quite good (plus some good guest real ales). You can't beat a good real ale hand-pulled! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Eagle_and_Child.JPG
i am amazed at the number of people who like the books. whenever i bring up lotr, all i hear is that they loved orlando bloom as a fairy. i am quite serious, this has happened on more than one occasion.
