Oh, that's wonderful! I wonder, did this possibility even come into anyone's mind when the Downs were started? Could the Professor himself even have thought of this possibility? I'm sure he would be glad to hear that not only his works inspired many people, not only bring together people who would not have otherwise met, but even bring together people to love and be loved, and allow the love blossom. But it's not about Tolkien, it's about you, whom I (daresay - at least a little bit
) know. And this being the first engagement I "see live" here, I consider this event a little miracle. Congratulations to you both! And my prayers will go with you if you allow it.
