Frankly, I just cannot imagine narrowing down my friendships and acqaintances and wonderful experiences here at the Barrow Downs to create a short list of "favourite". This place is about personality and literary longing and the politer forms of learning and sharing. It represents possibly the highest form of erudite, internet discussion. How can one character, one personality, be raised above all others when it is the summation of our activities which is so rewarding?
The Barrow Downs is greater than the sum of all its individual members and I for one won't sully that success by attempting to highlight a few memorable achievements. I won't be lured to choose the One Ring. It's the fellowship that counts.
