I'm glad I'm not alone in this odd little pleasure
It's only in three posts' time (two now, actually - unless I get skwerled and have posts wiped for making up rambling threads like this of course!).
It always strikes me that Downers are a celebratory bunch, any excuse for a bit of a party, Tolkien's birthday, Bilbo's birthday, the Barrow Downs' birthday, the opening of an envelope.... so you surprise me, though you could all be much
